yesterday my girl and i stopped at the local armory. Â they were holding a memorial day ceremony and i thought it would make for a good educational experience for her. Â as we watched, i looked around, hoping to see someone with a “Q” or “MAGA” hat/shirt. Â instead what i saw were a lot of patriotic shirts and hats, flags, etc. Â i thought “i would really like to get some more patriotic attire.” Â after over 20 years of not feeling “patriotic”, it is quite emotional for me today to feel that sense of patriotism again.
jump forward 24 hours later. Â a package arrives from my mother-in-law. inside is packed full of Americana. Â towels for the kitchen and bath. Â clothes for our girl and myself (you will see below a scarf i turned into a sarong because that is more my style). Â a pillow. Â shower liner. little necklaces – all celebrating the 4th of July and American Patriotism. wow. Â total surprise! Â if that weren’t enough, i looked at the bathroom hand towel. Â and well, you will see that little extra surprise below….
happy restoration of EVERYTHING. Â and happy upcoming 4th of july, america. Â may that flag finally wave truth, liberty and freedom.
love,
victoria
