Veteran’s Day.
When I was a young girl watching the old “Frances the Talking Mule” movies on Saturday afternoons. I was very interested in being a WAC, like my great Aunt Jenny had been. But I have never served in the armed forces {though I still kinda think I would’ve thrived there). But I have been served. And I am grateful.
Today, I am thanking the men and women who are far away from their families, doing a too-often thankless job, while I am here enjoying mine.
And I’d like to thank the families of the brave who serve us for all they give up – for us all.
And today, I want to remember the multiple thousands who have served and are gone, but who are not forgotten for all they have given and I remember my own family members who have served in so many different branches of the military over the course of time and wars. I am grateful. I thank God for them all. Today I remember.
I won’t forget. Thanks.
Well said, Honey. I second the sentiment. I also am so grateful for those who serve. Whenever I see a person in uniform out in public, I try to always walk up to them and thank them for their service. Thank You vets
