Anticipation of the 4th

It's almost time to celebrate America's birthday. I love the fireworks, the cookouts, the watermelon, and even the heat-especially getting in the water to get away from the heat. I love getting together with family and friends, but since July 2001 my fourth has a dark cloud hanging over it. That was the last day that Sarah was alive-she was killed by a drunk driver sometime around midnight. No matter what I do-she always crosses my mind. So I won't tell you not to drink-just drink responsibly and take it one step further. If you see some else that celebrated just a little too much, ask him/her not to drive. I know that's not easy but we're the home of the brave.Just one more cross on the side of the road is one more too many.
