Independence Day

Well here we are again, another Independence day is upon us.  This year I am extremely grateful to all the men and women not at "home" celebrating with us.  Whether you agree on the war or not doesn't matter right now.  What matters are there are many many people right now, today, fighting to keep us save.

Last night a friends husband came home from overseas, after being gone for a while.  This morning I was able to see a glimpse of what their reunion was like.  I sat at my computer, on facebook, flipping through picture after picture of their reunion.  I couldn't stop the tears from falling.  I felt honored to be able to feel the emotion on each and picture.  I am so happy for them!

So this holiday weekend while you are celebrating with your friends/family, please take a moment to give thanks for everyone who has helped us reach this day yet again.  If you currently have a loved one away for our country from the bottom of my heart I Thank you and them for their service. <3
