Having lived outside the country for 18 months, I gained a much deeper appreciation for my beloved home country—not only for the opportunities and prosperity it offers, but even more for the freedoms that protect us and give us the chance to become whoever we want to be.
I could never be grateful enough for this place I call home . . . and for the people I love who share that home with me.
Happy birthday, America! Have a barbecued sausage and a patriotic muffin, on us 🙂
Hope your holiday is as happy as ours!
