Gay Pride Mama

I went to the pride center last week to hang out with our GSA club officers as they attempted to plan out some activities for the club. At one point I mentioned that one of the other advisers of the club might not approve of my hanging out with them.

One girl said, "Right now, you are not high school staff. You are our friend. In fact, I am going to start calling you my gay pride Mama."

Then this tough girl hugged me and started to cry, telling me how much she missed her own mom, who happens to be out of commission for a while. I told her that I would be her mom any time she needed me to be. Then she got mad at me for making her cry. :P

Needless to say, I was extremely touched!

I am proud to be called the gay pride Mama!
