Alexis and I were in the car.
She saw a bird in the sky.
She said, "Mama ... is that an eagle?"
I looked out the window.
I said, "No, Hon ... it's not an eagle."
She looked disappointed. She said, "What is it?"
"A hawk, I think."
She folded her arms, rested her chin on her hands and gazed up sweetly at the Texas sky.
She whispered softly ......."I wish I could see an eagle."
"Me too, Honey Bun - me too!"
Happy 4th Of July!
God Bless Our Armed Forces!
God Bless America!
