One of the highlights of Pope Francis’ visit to the United States is his attendance at the World Meeting of Families in Philadelphia.
It got us thinking ... The modern American family comes in all different colors, shapes and sizes. As part of our coverage of the pope’s visit and his focus on family, NBCNews.com asked readers to share photos of their family — and boy, have they ever. The response has been terrific.
We've highlighted some of the submissions here, but to see more, go to our Facebook, Twitter and Instagram accounts. And, please, keep the submissions coming. Show us your family by using the hashtag #MyFamilyNBC. Don't be afraid to tell us why it's special. We'll continue to share your photos and your stories.
