Though I am staying in and not celebrating this year, I will always acknowledge this day. I am proud to be an American and I love my country! This day was always special to me because while my Mom was still alive, we used to go watch the fireworks together. It remains as one of the good memories I have with her... So while I won't be out celebrating this year, for those of you that are, be safe and have fun! Happy 4th of July!
