Happy Birthday America

Happy Birthday, America.  May all your citizens understand and value the Declaration of Independence, signed by our founders many years ago on this day and the freedoms that those founders won for us.

May we also understand and value our Constitution and its Bill of Rights--and never give up those Rights for any reason.

May God Bless the troops who have fought for our freedom over these many generations, especially those who are currently deployed.

One more thing--please pray for and help the families of those 19 Arizona firefighters who gave their their lives to protect the lives and property of their neighbors.  Please read the blog of my friend, Bonnie, who lives in Arizona, near the fire, which is still raging:   http://bleekreations.blogspot.com/2013/07/happy-birthday-america.html

  1. Thank you Linda. I see the pictures of these young guys that died and it just breaks my heart. Some of their children are so young they won't even remember their fathers.

  2. You're welcome, Bonnie. It is heartbreaking. I hope that people will help the families of these men who gave everything. Most of them were so young. It's hard to accept.
