...and the home of the brave.

As we approach the Fourth of July, it is important to remember what the true meaning of this important holiday is. Not only is it the number one BBQ day of the year, as I've just learned, it's the glorious day our land became a nation. Let us all celebrate with family and friends the freedom our soldiers fought for then and continue to fight for today.

I stumbled across this adorable stamp written by a child and couldn't resist. Sometimes it's the young ones who show us big kids what it's all about. It's a simple but so perfect quote, "One small fight can lead to war, but one small kiss can lead to peace." If we could all capture the true meaning of this little girl's words, our country would be unstoppable.

Here is a card I made, just so I could get this quote on paper. I'll probably end up sending it to my grandmother or something. More Independence cards will be made this week! Have a fantastic weekend!
