Independence Day

Today is the 4th of July. I think that it's interesting that the day America celebrates the breaking of their shackles, is the day I celebrate the putting on of mine.

16 years ago today, Sean and I finally decided that our friendship was something more. I tell ya, it was a day for fireworks and all kinds of epiphanies for sure! I look back to that day so long ago and see the road that we have traveled together. There have been potholes and detours aplenty, but through out it all we have remained steadfast in our commitment to one another.

Looking forward I know that there is something missing. In my mind, I can see a small child holding onto to our fingers as we continue along our life's path. I worry every day about that dream coming true.
