July 4th...in Canada

Though living in Canada, we still wanted to remember our 4th of July. An American friend, John, prompted us to have dinner together. Then Rod and I decided to create a patriotic mural. The flag was flown in Iraq in 2006 by our daughter, a US Marine. The certificate in the top left corner says so. The Army sweatshirt is from our son, Gabe, presently serving in Afghanistan. The shirt top right is from our son Josh, a Marine reservist. And the Bible is opened to Psalm 23, telling about Our Shepherd..."yea though I walk thru the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil for Thou art with me." We often pray this for our children in the military and others serving our country.
