(People have been bombarding my email box with pleas to put up a post on the Connecticut marriage equality ruling...apologies; I've been offline all day. I got zero sleep last night after putting Bailey down; the posts that went up today I had in the queue prior to the ruling. --P.)

In a ruling that has to bolster spirits across the country, the Connecticut Supreme Court ruled today that same-sex couples have the right to marry. This makes it the third state to legalize marriage equality, after Massachusetts and California.
