Hey, Mom! How are you? Today is my first day back to work in 10 days. It was nice having all that time off, but I’m happy to be getting back to my routine.

I realize that I forgot to even mention our 4th of July celebration. There wasn’t much to it. Around 8:30 or so, I asked Ramsey if she wanted to see fireworks. She did, so we went to our driveway like we do every year to await the show.

And one with the fireworks. She wouldn’t hardly hold still for this one.

They always close our street for the show since the park where they hold the event is so close to our house. A lot of people gather on our street to watch. This year, midway through the event, I noticed a black shape darting fearfully away from the fireworks. Several seconds afterward, a man came running by. Turns out that the black shape was his dog, frightened by the festivities. Not sure why you would bring a dog to a fireworks show. I just hope he recovered his canine friend.

This morning when I was getting ready for work, Cliff came up carrying a box. Apparently, he had ordered a special Mother’s Day gift for me months ago and had forgotten about it once he hid it. Look at my girl.

I can’t wait to find the perfect place to display this.

Not much more to report, but you know I’ll be back soon. I love you, Mom.
