united we stand - independence day

happy 4th of july, y'all! today is our nation's birthday....231 years old. i've had a nice day relaxing in the middle of the work week. i spent a good part of the day knitting while watching the revolution on the history channel. it was pretty interesting even though we had history shoved down our throats in school. it's always good to get different perspectives on our nation's history.

i'm glad i live in the united states. we have freedoms that other countries don't have. we have rights that other countries don't have. i couldn't imagine living in a country where i would be killed if i declare i'm a christian and believe in jesus. we're definitely lucky, folks, and should be appreciative.

i also want to say thanks to all the men and women who have served and are currently serving in our armed forces. we wouldn't be this great nation without all of you out there protecting us and what we stand for. i'm proud that i live in the united states of america...the greatest country GOD has ever created and blessed. :)

kisses....
