Last year at this time, our family was quite a mess. It had only been a month since Donny's accident and he had only been home from the hospital for about a week. We didn't really get to do any of our normal family stuff. And as I look forward to today, I am excited to spend time with family, friends AND EAT!!! This quote from Erma Bombek fits perfectly,
"You have to love a nation that celebrates its independence every July 4th, not with a parade of guns, tanks, and soldiers who file by the White House in a show of strength and muscle, but with family picnics where kids throw Frisbees, the potato salad gets iffy, and the flies die from happiness. You may think you have overeaten, but it is patriotism."
