full circle

when i was a kid the 4th was my favorite holiday. i think because we tended to get together with friends more than family so there was less stress than say, christmas, the bestest of all holidays. mom and dad were more chill, due to kids hopped up on gum and tootsie rolls and they on booze. they were amongst their friends and we were amongst ours. plus, we got to stay up late and see fireworks. last night was very reminiscent of that for me only i was on the other side.
that's fiona aged 4 eating a popsicle (the kind i grew up on) and gearing up for her first ever fireworks show.
it was a great evening...we were amongst our dearest friends and the kids were hopped up on gum and tootsie rolls and we on booze.
