A Slice of the 4th of July

We owe our independence
to others who paved the initial way:
heros,heroines,Founding Fathers, and patriots.
LET'S CONTINUE TO↓

How did you celebrate the Fourth of July?

My family
CELEBRATES independence each year
in style with homemade cookies!
This year the chocolate chip cookies are colored blue with chocolate frosting. The house is decorated inside and outside.
You may ask how my little grandgirls celebrated while at my house?
They enjoyed swimming in the pool.
They met new children who were with their grandparents.
They had a delicious barbecue,
and sang a song they rehearsed the night before,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMERICA!
But there is more:
they wished for ice cream
at the new ice cream store.
Each child, plus adults tried different yummy flavors.
🎆
My Wish For All Children and Students:
To grow into honorable citizens who uphold the Constitution,
create plans for a better tomorrow, and memories for the future.
So, let's ignite the

American Spirit 
Authentic voices 
Make noise as they
Embark on
Roads ahead-
If freedom devotees
Commit, they will rise
As responsive Americans ready for 
    Next Steps 
Positive approaches that
Inspire students to
Reach out 
Ignite the flame
To make more noise

  1. Carol, I loved your post because it truly made me stop and appreciate your final thought, "To grow into honorable citizens who uphold the Constitution,
    create plans for a better tomorrow, and memories for the future". I love how you celebrate with homemade cookies and ice cream and most likely created a celebration that did not involve the traditional sparklers and firecrackers.
