The Gift of Freedom




I went to my Mother's blog this morning and I was brought to tears. There on her blog were pictures of my fathers and my brother in their service uniforms. It took my breath away. I love each of these men so much for many different reasons. I want to say Thank You for what you did to make a difference for me.

We went to the parade, enjoyed a picnic and fireworks, all the makings of a great 4th of July. But really it is the individuals who have made a choice, a choice to fight for freedom, for me and for my children. I love this country, God does bless this country. I am free, and I will be forever grateful for that blessing and gift.
