Sue: When Wendy calls me at work in the middle of the day, just hearing her voice puts a smile on my face. We watch out for each other, and we enjoy coming home at the end of the day, talking and relaxing in the hot tub. Wendy: I can't believe people are so weirded out by a lifestyle they know nothing about. We're not going out looking for other people. We end up in the same bed at night, and we wake up in the morning together. I can't imagine Sue not being there. Sue: Wendy has strengths that balance out my weaknesses, I have strengths that balance out hers. If I'm struggling with something, all it takes is talking with her about it. It took me a long time to find somebody who I truly enjoy being with. Wendy: I love traveling with Sue. Someday, we want to get an RV and visit national parks all over the country. Sue: One day, I asked one of my students if he had ever gone camping with his mom and dad. "I don't have a dad,"he said matter-of-factly. "I've got a mom and a mama."In my ideal world, all kids would be able to feel proud of their families like that.
