Happy 4th of JULY

One of my favorite pictures from the night. 
I hope you had fun!
Happy to be an American! Over 400 people became citizens in central Florida on July 4th, 2013
Our family spent a day at the beach with a sunburn to prove it. We had fun our son wants to move to a beach house he seen for sale. I think he went insane. I love the beach and all but all the sand gets on my nervous it gets in every crack you have. Seriously rethinking a beach wedding last time we were there we seen a wedding set up. The bride looked beautiful. She was complaining about the sand. My hubby and I just looked at each other like yup I know what you are thinking. I love the beach don't get me wrong I just can't do the sand thing everyday. I might change my mind my hubby did set us up to look at some. We will see how it goes wish us luck. 
This day means so much more !
It's anniversary of the publication of the declaration of independence from Great Britain in 1776. Patriotic displays and family events are organized throughout the United States. I seen a number of houses displaying our American flag that made me proud to be an American. I couldn't help to think of loved ones still overseas frighting for freedom. They are fighting to come home in one peace. When they do come home nothing will be the same. Many will have to fight for benefits fight for a job and fight the battle they left behind. Friends they lost friends they used to have fight the battle inside themselves. It's called PTSD soldiers will come home and not know what to do. No one understands what they seen or had to do no one will understand. They expect a solider to come home jump right into the life they once had. This has bothered me since my step-father went to fight in Desert Storm. I try and help anyway I can from buying coffee from a Cup of Joe. 

My son writes a letter every week to Thank a solider.
The Soldier: - By Charles M. Province

It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press.
It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech.
If you can read this message thank a teacher,
If you are reading it in English of your own free will THANK A SOLDIER!
It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate.
It is the soldier, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial.
It is the soldier, who salutes the flag, who serves under the flag, and whose coffin is draped by the flag,
who allows the protester to burn the flag.
To all the brave men and women who have dedicated or given their lives
to protecting this country and it's freedoms:
Thank you.

Take a peek and see if you can help.

We can never thank these fallen soldiers, and their families, enough. Let us all keep them in our thoughts and prayers. Be humbled. Be gracious! Be grateful Be Kind listen if someone wants to talk it's hard for soldiers to talk about the past.

Here are a few links to take a look at that supports our Military.

Military Wife's Poem

Military Wife's Poem is something that hits home I just had to share it. Many people forget that the family of someone in the Military is just as hard as the one who left.

...
I let you go a second time

You came back with more pain and hurt in your eyes.

That soon faded into black

You stared a stare so dark and lifeless

It just didn’t make any sense to me?

I always though my husband could never get PTSD

All day long I’d see a life less man

A man who has a million mile stare

Who would jump for no reason?

Angry at nothing and always in despair

Through the night you’d toss and turn, you’d sweat, you’d cry

You would always say I should’ve died

I told you something was not right

All you would do was deny

Paranoid beyond belief

Something was going on you could not control

You didn’t understand which way to go?

Who is this man? This man with no soul

The man I married had so much more

He cared, he cried, he laughed

He would always kiss me good night

I demanded to get my husband back

This man next to me is just not right

There came a time I drew the line

You realized that it is now the time

Time to get help before you fade

You wouldn’t be another soldier in the shade

You served our country

You’ve paid the price

It’s clear to see

More rough times then good

Seems like the way it shall be

I have hope and faith that one day

This invisible wound will disappear

Until that day

I will help fight the fight

Be by your side day and night,

For this journey that we call our life

I always see little hints of what use to be

I know that someday it will be

The real Joe and Me…

Thank you Mel Rusty...just beautiful ♥
