As the sun set, we lit sparklers and listened to the pops and crackles of the fireworks that lit our faces with every explosion and we did so in the backyard of friends that feel like family. We watched as the children, theirs and ours, played together while we discussed the roles we’ve grown into over the years that quickly snuck up on us. It’s easy to take for granted the freedom we’re automatically given as citizens of this nation… the freedom of adulthood, the freedom of parenthood… the freedom fought for by the brave that makes this whole journey possible yet not a day goes by where it isn't appreciated.
