A tribute to my favorite day

What is it about fireworks?
They make me smile for 45 minutes ... straight.
They light up the night as bright as day.
They shake me from the inside out.
They symbolize our freedom.
They make me feel like a five-year-old kid.
They mean summer is in full swing.
They go perfectly with the 1812 Overture.
They bring out the patriotic feelings of normally unpatriotic people.

They memorialize.
They honor.
They celebrate.

There are surely fireworks in Heaven.

It's hilarious to watch fireworks with you because you seriously are like a 5 year old.

"Ohhhhhhh! Ahhhhh! Did you see THAT!?"

They cancelled the fireworks this year in my neighborhood.
