Happy Memorial Day

What a great day with the family, as we BBQ'ed and enjoyed the sun!  This, of course, would not be possible without our freedom to do so.  I'm grateful for this day, as it is also a reminder that freedom isn't free.  It comes with the price of many lives, so that many of us can sleep at night in peace.

Gratitude also has a greater purpose...

Happy Mother's Day!

I celebrate Mother's Day because for me it's celebrating the relationship, like a birthday.  While yes, everyday should be a birthday, Mother's Day, Christmas, etc., shouldn't we just roll with it, embrace it and have fun today?  It also serves as a reminder to appreciate all we have.  :)

So,

Happy Mother's Day, Mom!  Thanks for being our angel!  I'm so happy and grateful that we get to still spend time with you!
