Happy Fourth of July!
Aurora woke up just in time to throw on her stars and stripes, quickly
adorn her tricycle with “sparklers,” and jump out the door to join the
parade!
Who needs a band when a kid pulling boom box in a wagon can grand
marshal the parade by blasting out the patriotic tunes of Sousa! I waved and cheered from the doorstep
as our friends and neighbors marched past in a glitter of streamers, flags, and
balloons. Aurora took her role in
the event very seriously and blew her little whistle as loud as a little
plastic whistle can blow!
And the nice thing about waking up five minutes before a
parade is that you get to eat popsicles for breakfast!
