I've noticed that more and more often communities are scheduling their July 4th celebrations on days other than the 4th. What's up with that? Independence Day, as I know it, celebrates the "birth" of the USA and forever will be on July 4th, 1776. Of course, it must not be convenient enough to match everyone's schedule so community leaders just shuffle it on to a different day...
I guess I shouldn't be surprised. These days it's hard to find a newborn that wasn't a scheduled birth, be it induced labor or scheduled cesarean. How fitting that we also reschedule the birth of our freedom around our busy lives...
