May 14, 2006: The creatrix of Mombian, which looks to be a great site for lesbian moms, is promotoing June 1st as Blogging for LGBT Famlies Day. Here’s her great idea:

I’m declaring June 1, 2006 Blogging for LGBT Families Day, a day to raise awareness about LGBT families. I want to invite you all to participate. Please also pass the invitation along to anyone, LGBT or straight, whom you think may be interested.

Why June 1st? This date falls exactly between Mother’s Day and Father’s Day. As such, it honors mothers and fathers equally, but also conveys that not all families fit into the traditional structure of one mother and one father. June 1st is also the start of Gay Pride Month.

Here’s how it works, in a nutshell: You blog about a relevant topic on or before June 1, and do one of several easy things (see below) to let me know you’ve done so. I will compile a list of all the posts, showcasing the voices of our community and allies. I will also market the event within andf beyond the world of LGBT-family blogs.

So, if you have a blog, join in the Famliy Fun! We’d sure love to have you aboard!
