So how great is it to live in America?  Seriously.  The news is covered with stories of men and women who’re sacrificing their lives in the Middle East for just the chance at living in a truly Democratic society.  At least that’s the hope.  Thanks in large part to our dedicated military and over two centuries of hard work, we don’t have those problems.  Look, I’m not naive enough to think this country is without it’s problems.  In fact, I’m not even blind to the fact that my family has problems. 

The fact is though, “problems” is so loosely defined.   For example, we had a serious problem this month.  We weren’t sure how we were going to carry Ryan through Disney World on our vacation in a few weeks.  Turns out, we found the solution!  Then, we had to decide between black or green!  These are serious issues that required serious thought!  So again, I ask, how lucky are we to live in America.
