Today’s embroidery project carries a little more meaning for me than most.
I made several “Freedom” shirts, including some in red. Mine is blue with red stitching, and I chose those colors intentionally.
One year ago today, our country lost Charlie Kirk. I didn’t know him personally, but I watched his videos and found myself agreeing with much of what he had to say about faith, family, and country.
But it wasn’t only what he believed that stood out to me. He was willing to educate, ask questions, listen, and have open and honest conversations with people who didn’t necessarily agree with him.
The ability to disagree, debate, and still have a real conversation feels like a dying art in our country.
His passing affected me on an emotional level, and I wanted to remember today in a way that felt genuine to me without making it something loud or political.
Sometimes one word says it all.
Freedom. 🇺🇸
Remembering today. ❤️💙
