Proud Military Card

I know many of you who work outside the home will be off work for Independence Day.  Some will celebrate with parties, picnics, boating, or attending concerts.  Watermelon, hot dogs, hamburgers, homemade ice cream are just some of the things that come to my mind when I think of the fourth of July.  And let's not forget the Fireworks!

Commemoration of the Declaration of Independence should be the primary reason for the remembrance of the Fourth of July. My wish is that we teach our children the importance of this day. Our forefathers fought for our FREEDOM for us, our children, grandchildren and beyond.  Thomas Jefferson wrote this sometime between the middle of June and the end of June.  

As you watch the fireworks display tomorrow, attend that concert or parade, grill outdoors with family and friends, I ask you to remember...and be grateful we live in such a great Nation.
