Veterans

Happy Veterans Day!

I am so extremely thankful for the men and women who serve in the armed forces.  I am thankful for all of the sacrifices that they give, including being apart from their families for extended periods of time.  I am thankful for them being willing to give their lives for the freedom that we know as Americans. 

My father served and my grandfather served.  I am so appreciative that they did. 

I enjoy the freedom of being an American.  I enjoy being able to worship God freely, without being scared that I will be killed for my beliefs.  I enjoy the many opportunities that come with being an American.  I know that freedom requires sacrifice.  I hope that veterans know that we appreciate them each and every day throughout the year, not just on Veteran's Day.

Happy Veteran's Day to all of those who served.  We have so much to thank you for!
