I am giving thanks today on this Memorial day and thinking of all those who have served and fought for freedom. Thank a veteran today.
Memorial day may mean so many things to each of us. I give thanks today to all the hero's. Freedom means so much to each of us, it certainly deserves Thanks and praise.
We raised our flag yesterday, I hugged a vet in the grocery store, big baby wimpered and we went to the parade this morning. Now we're doing some big time mowing after a week of rain!
I went to a Memorial Day ceremony in the town I was born in. The older Military men standing so proud in their uniforms brought tears to my eyes. I shook hands with them, and one even "stole" a kiss. It was funny. Came home, looked at our flag and had a little cry.
Coming from Pensacola, Fla(the mother-in-law of the Navy)I celebrate Memorial without fail. A Big Hand to everyone in our Armed Forces, now & long ago. xxpeggybraswelldesign.com
I have raised a flag and will certainly be remembering what today is all about. Have a wonderful rest of your week.
ReplyDeletePatricia, When my late husband passed I gave his military flag to his son. It has taken me too long and now I am going to to replace it!
