Happy Independence Day! |
It is not the 4th, it is not the 4th of July, it is Independence Day. The 4th of July is only a date on a calendar and this day has more meaning than every single day. Today is the day in which we, the United States of America adopted the Declaration of Independence in 1776 - declaring our independence from Great Britain.
This day has much meaning to us, as a military family. Our ancestors, loved ones and friends have died for the fight to maintain and continue our freedom. This day also takes me back to 2004 a year that was really rough for us as PJ was overseas. He is here with us now, but the memories that remain from that Independence Day and the celebrations and friendships that were formed on that day will always evoke a particular feeling in my heart.
God Bless you, your family and our wonderful United States of America. -Mary |
