Happy Independence Day!
"When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bonds which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness."

Across the great nation of the United States of America people everywhere celebrate the freedoms that they enjoy, the history, government, and traditions of the United States with fireworks, parades, barbecues, carnivals, fairs, picnics, concerts, baseball games, political speeches and ceremonies, and various other public and private events.

Eliza would be spending the day around the medical wing. But she made sure to take the time today to call her Dad...to call Matt.

She wanted to make sure he knew she saw him as her Dad here. She just hadn't felt like she had enough of a connection with him yet here. Wishes would be sent both ways and she would try to ease his mind by letting him know she was being careful. He and Elektra had heard about what had happened and Matt expressed he hoped Tasha and Tony would recover.

It was a strained conversation because of that. Eliza wanted to reach out to him but didn't know how. She hesitated after that conversation and decided to call her other brother Jack to send him some well wishes for the day.

Anya was there too (as if she would be any place else). It was far from the usual way of celebrating the fourth, but the family was together and sometimes that's all that was important.

When Eliza was done on the phone Anya approached her. The whole Murdock thing was weird, but in the grand scheme of things it could have been a lot weirder and worse. They were an unconventional family, but it worked for them.

"When this is all over, you should take a trip out there and spend some time with him," she said. "Get to know him better."

Not the normal Fourth for them, but they'd already had their fireworks for the year. Misha wasn't the insomniac Mom and Anya were, but he hadn't had more than a couple of hours of sleep since he arrived in Medical. Not all in one chunk either. His brain told him if he didn't stay awake and keep watch, someone else would get hurt.

"Spend time with who?" he asked, catching the last few words. He put an arm around Eliza's shoulders.

"Dad," Eliza says with a small shrug. "I'd like to. Just, you know, after Mom and Tony are out of here."

No way will she even think of doing anything else. She notes that she needs to get some idea of where she'll do her senior year of high school. If Mom isn't okay by August she thinks home school might be a good option for her but she won't mention that to the others yet.

	"I said when this is over. Which goodness knows when that will be." Anya didn't mention the stuff with the company to them. It would just cause more stress that they didn't need. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Misha shot Anya a look at her comment. They were all worried and stressed, but it was no reason to snap at Eliza for what amounted to thinking out loud. "It's a good idea, Eliza. When you're ready to go, I'll be happy to fly out there with you. If you want some company for the trip." (Reply to this)(Parent)
