So thankful for the blessing of living in America! It's a wonderful country! This is a picture of last year 4th of July in Virginia with Daniel. Bethany memorized this poem for school, and I really like it, so I thought I would share it. :-)
"Freedom Rings"
By Jill Lemming
Starry skies and moonlit nights,
Such beauty in our land...
Such beauty in our land...
We're so thankful for these blessings
That come from God's own hand.
That come from God's own hand.
The right to vote, to have a choice,
In a nation proud and strong,
And on this Independence Day,
We sing our Freedom's Song.
In a nation proud and strong,
And on this Independence Day,
We sing our Freedom's Song.
We salute our flag so proudly,
And thank God for the chance to say...
"There's no country we love better,
Than the good ol USA!"
And thank God for the chance to say...
"There's no country we love better,
Than the good ol USA!"
Today we'll gather together
With our family and our friends...
Giving thanks to our Heavenly Father,
For the blessings that He sends.

Thank you Lord for America,
A place where we can pray...
We give you all the glory
On this Independence Day!
