LOVE JULY

Am feeling very thankful and patriotic right now! Am so thankful to live in THE LAND OF THE FREE!!!
I was watching Aladdin with the girls the other day and you know...I am just so glad that we don't get our hands chopped off if we steal! I told the girls that there are other countries where you that happens when you steal. I am glad that we get a trial or can apologize and make restitution and receive forgiveness.
I found a quote from Pres. Hinckley that I like here it is:
"I believe in America. I am grateful for the Constitution under which this nation lives and moves and has its being. I am profoundly grateful that somehow for more than two centuries of time we have existed as a nation and grown to become the strongest and most free in the entire world. I am grateful for those men whom the God in Heaven raised up and inspired and who pledged their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor to establish this nation and its government. I believe in America -- one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. We are, of course, not without fault. We have more than our share of crime and of every other evil to be found on the earth. I fear that we have become an arrogant people, but when all is said and done, there is no other nation quite like this one." [Bonneville International Corporation Management Seminar, February 10, 1991; quoted in Teachings of Gordon B. Hinckley p. 13]
I am so thankful for our soldiers...men and women who are have put and are putting their lives on the line for our Freedom. God bless them and protect them!!!

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY TO YOU ALL!!!!
