-----CELEBRATE-----

(Random thought)-

I feel like a change, I designed my own blog, I did a new post, now I am going to get a haircut..

I have two relatives and two friends husbands serving for our country right now. It is hard to imagine what they go through everyday, just for us, for our happiness, for our freedom, and for our lives.

Family's, wives, friends, parents, kids, aunts and uncles, cousins take their loved ones to the airbase, with broken hearts but also a sense of pride in them. They kiss each other good bye and carry and eternal prayer in hopes that everything will be alright and that they will return home unharmed.

The time comes to re-unite. Parents with open arms, tears in joy in their eyes, and children squealing with excitement running towards their mother or their father, it's hard to imagine that a few of those family members aren't there that sent them off, hard to believe the unthinkable.

My dear friend was not there to meet her husband, she unfortunately was one who was not there, her brave husband was seriously injured in the line of fire. She is a mother of 5, with her youngest only being 1 in age. He is not able to come home, and she is not able to be with him, so many miles away, so far apart, she and all of us are thankful that he is alive, but so sad at the same time.

There is so many fun things to celebrate the 4Th of July, we will be going to our annual camp out with our ward for the rest of the week, parade, and so on, but when we are having a great o' time, lets stop and give thanks to the ones who really deserve it, the ones fighting for our happiness, our freedom and our lives.

I have another reason to celebrate today, I just clicked on the spellcheck, and this was the first time that I did not have to fix anything...Nuttin' like tootin' my own horn..TOOOOOT TOOOOOOOT!!!!
