feeling guilty

I forgot the American flag was out here
Placed it there myself for the fourth of July
this means it was in the rain at least twice
I feel a bit guilty
my daughter was a Captain in the Air Force
I am glad she does not drive in the rain
I did not see it there
due to the weeds

Caren... I don't know whether to laugh at your humor or take you seriously. But I DO seriously admire your daughter's service. May I suggest you get rid of those weeds? lol I admire you, too for your multiple posts. ;-)

my daughter was the first service person in our family except for my father-in-law, so we are proud of her - thank you
