remembering. . .

. . .i know this is a day late. . .but it's never too late to thank those that serve and protect us everyday so that we can sleep peacefully at night. . .

have you heard of this book?

i had not, until ryan came home from school and told me all about it. . .he also told me that his classroom put together a committee, asked the principal if they could do this, and set up their own white table to say thanks.  part of his classroom's observence of the holiday was also a small book about the various branches of the service, which included a questionaire for a veteran in your life.  ryan chose to call pop-pop and get the specifics of his tour of duty with the Air Force Strategic Air Command in NY. . .i love that he could share this with my dad - and that my dad could share this with him. . .we are very lucky indeed.

so thank you - from the bottom of my heart - to all the men and women that serve now and have served in the past - to their families and loved ones that support them. . .for keeping my country my family and all those i love - safe.

catch you soon -
