Description
You can imagine the anticipation this young boy felt as the day of the annual Fourth of July Parade approached. The excitement of the passing decorated floats, the marching bands, the clowns and the horses soon subsided when it all came to an end.

What a delightful image. Like all children, he doesn't want a good thing to come to an end. It is a photo that does not need words. Pulls at the strings of the heart. I like and thank you for sharing a delightful photo--and bringing back a few memories of my own.
David and Carol Kelly replied:
Mary, thanks so much for sharing your thoughts and memories. I had taken our older grandson to the parade and stood behind this little boy and his family. Couldn't take my eyes off this precious little boy in his red, white and blue. He had been waving his little flag during the whole parade.
