Free to Remember


"Let freedom reign...the sun never set on so glorious a human 
achievement."
Nelson Mandela


Chicken on the grill as the sun set off our back deck on Saturday.
The day was spent baking cookies,
running errands,
playing with a sweet baby,
watching a college soccer game,
celebrating a four year old's birthday
and sitting quietly with my husband for the evening.
The flags were at half-mast
in the town centers
and over the soccer field.
Because we do remember.
Because we choose to remember.
Because we are free to remember.
