We didn't have any celebrations this year; not even grilling for supper. It was a "labor day" for us. We didn't watch any fireworks either. That usually makes me sad because faces of starving children get in the way of the colorful display- such a waste of money in the name of entertainment. (I'm not condemning anyone -just stating my personal hang-up.)
We are thankful for our freedoms though. I've been thinking on the Bible verse "And ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free... If the Son therefore shall make you free, you shall be free indeed." True freedom ...without worries of it being taken away some day.
A is away for a long weekend with her school teacher & classmates. Her first time out-of-state overnight without her parents. I have this tiny, niggling apprehension because I know she was a little apprehensive when she left.
