My photo
Having a large Scottish heritage that migrated from England into Canada to Maine and other states. I am from a family of 9. Six girls and 3 boys. My dad died young when I was about 8 years old. I have 4 children and 3 step children with the great joy of 20 grandchildren. I worked in financial institutions and accounting for many years. Now I sew and make lots of stuffed animals and many other things. I'm a grandmother that has years of sewing in a wide variety of catagories. Photography has become one of my passions over the years. Nature that God has presented us is one of the greatest to photograph. My family and pets hate to see me with a camera in my hands. The bug took hold at Christmas time taking photos of my children in front of the tree. That became a tradition. Then you have family gatherings, vacations, grandchildren and the list could go on.

Let's Get This Circulating by July 4th




I HOPE THERE ISN'T ANYONE ON MY E-MAIL LIST THAT WON'T KEEP THIS GOING.


Happy 4th of
July!....
................let' s get this started now,
So it will be out there on the fourth!!!!




I PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO THE
FLAG,


OF THE
UNITED
STATES OF AMERICA,


AND TO THE REPUBLIC, FOR
WHICH IT STANDS,


ONE
NATION UNDER GOD
,



INDIVISIBLE, WITH
LIBERTY


AND JUSTICE FOR ALL!

KEEP
IT LIT!! KEEP
IT LIT!


For
All of our other military personnel, where ever they may
Be

Please
Support all of the troops defending our Country.






And God
Bless our Military who are protecting our Country for our
Freedom.
Thanks
To them, and their sacrifices we can celebrate the 4th of July





We must never forget who
Gets the credit for the freedoms we have, of which we should be
Eternally grateful..


I watched the flag
Pass by one day,
It fluttered in the breeze.




A young Marine
Saluted it,
And then he stood at ease..


I looked at
Him in uniform
So young, so tall, so proud,
With hair cut square
And eyes alert
He'd stand out in any crowd.



I thought how many men
Like him
Had fallen through the years.
How many died on foreign
Soil
How many mothers' tears?


How many pilots' planes
Shot down?
How many died at sea
How many foxholes were soldiers'
Graves?
No, freedom isn't free

I heard the sound of Taps
One night,
When everything was still,
I listened to the bugler

Play
And felt a sudden chill.

I wondered just how many times

That Taps had meant 'Amen,'

When a flag had draped a
Coffin.
Of a brother or a friend.




I thought of all the
Children,
Of the mothers and the wives,
Of fathers, sons and
Husbands
With interrupted lives.

I
Thought about a graveyard
At the bottom of the sea



Of unmarked graves in
Arlington.
No, freedom isn't free.



Enjoy Your Freedom
& God Bless Our Troops

When
You receive this, please stop for a moment
And
Say a
Prayer for our servicemen.

Of all the gifts you could give
A US Soldier, Prayer is the very best
One
