I AM proud to be an American and to enjoy the freedoms I enjoy. I can think of so many things I am grateful for and the freedoms I enjoy because I live in America. Today I want to give a big shout out to my Brother-in-law Max. He left on Wednesday to serve in Afghanistan for the next 6 months. So while we are here enjoying our freedoms there are so many over there fighting to keep our freedoms. Max is in the Air force and recently graduated top in his class with a language degree. We are so proud of him and admire and love him. So not only THANK YOU to him, but to all of those men and women who are on Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq or wherever they may be. I know some of them haven't seen their families in months, maybe years, I know some of them are hurt badly, I know there are some who are missing or are prisoners of war and I know I could never bear to see the things the see and mostly I know MANY, MANY have died in their fight. We owe so much to them!!
Happy Independence Day!!
