Excuse
me. I know this is a party blog but I need to get something off of my chest. We
are approaching July 4th weekend and we’ll all fire up the grill,
have a few pops and enjoy the weather and some fireworks. Let’s not
forget that it’s Independence Day. Our soldiers have fought in a variety of
wars over the 232 years to secure that independence. Soldiers are fighting
today in Iraq and Afghanistan. The war has not disrupted our daily lives and I worry that sometimes we forget about the men and women that are making the ultimate sacrifice for each and
every one of us. So take a minute our of your July 4th celebration
to remember our soldiers. Maybe you make a toast. Or even a donation (there’s
lots of worthwhile organizations out there but I use the USO).
Let’s hope that soon we’ll be welcoming the soldiers back. In fact, we
even wrote a Welcome Home, Soldier party
in hopes that it will be used.
Thanks
to all the soldiers fighting to protect our liberties. Our thoughts and
prayers are with them.
