<div class="pt-cv-content">The end-of-year holiday season is hard for me now that my parents have passed. Thanksgiving had always been my Jewish family of origin’s time to gather. My brother and I have continued to celebrate Thanksgiving with our immediate families and his wife’s parents, but the absence of our parents makes the occasion bittersweet. I miss them, too, at Hanukkah, when we always lit a menorah and exchanged gifts. I’m finding comfort this year, however, in a new project to uncover and preserve our family history. <a href="https://www.mombian.com/2019/12/20/for-the-holidays-finding-family-creating-connections/" class="_self pt-cv-readmore pt-cv-textlink cvplbd" target="_self" data-iw="150" data-ih="150" rel="noopener noreferrer">Read More >></a></div>

<aside id="text-4" class="widget widget_text"><h3 class="widget-title">About Mombian</h3> <div class="textwidget"><p>Mombian is a lifestyle site for lesbian moms and other LGBTQ parents, offering a mix of parenting, politics, diversions, and resources. I founded Mombian in 2005 after noting a lack of sites with current, practical news and information for LGBTQ parents, or sites that looked at other aspects of LGBTQ culture with a parent’s eye. I hope lesbian moms (and others) will find something interesting and perhaps worthy of conversation. I also created and host the annual #LGBTQFamiliesDay (formerly Blogging for LGBTQ Families Day) event, which began in 2006. For more, see the <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20191120114432/https://www.mombian.com/about-mombian/">About</a> page.</p>
