thanks

Thinking of all who have fought to give us our freedom, on this Veteran's Day. Called my brother who served in the Army and thanked him for just being him.

Someone mentioned to me that they didn't think we should have a special day to thank our military. I thought that was crazy until they explained that we should be thankful everyday not just once a year. That hit me...yep we definitely need to keep our troops, past and present, in our thoughts, hearts and prayers everyday. But I still think that we need, no they need, one day a year that as one a nation can come together and honor those who have given us our freedom.

The boys attended an assembly at school today for Veteran's day. That was cool, because it opened a dialogue about why we should be thankful and what the day is all about.
