I hate to say it, but 4th of July is turning into just another day off for me. Slowly, it’s becoming a day that reminds me of what I miss on 4th of July.
- I miss having my own a backyard….the condo I live in has a shared yard.
- I miss the cookouts.
- I miss getting together with my family, my Aunts, Uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews–basically everyone—on the 4th of July.
- I miss sliced watermelon and kids spitting seeds at each other.
- I miss the card games, horseshoes, and laughter.
- I miss fireworks actually being blown off on the 4th.
- I miss my Dad and I miss my brother. (This post was originally written in 2015. Sadly, in 2019, I need to add that I also miss my sister and my Mother.)
