"When in the course of human events..."


I know I won't be blogging tomorrow, so I'm posting this early. We're headed to the lake early in the morning and won't be home until late in the evening. In case you've never read it, give the Declaration of Independence a read. Pretty gutsy stuff these men were signing their names to.

That's what has always impressed me the most. By signing their names to this document these men were basically committing treason against the king of England...a crime punishable by death. I'm so thankful for the life I enjoy and the freedoms I possess all because of this stunning act of bravery, both theirs and everyone who fought for America's independence! Happy Fourth of July!
