Honoring Our Veterans

DSC_0084

While we were visiting DC on Monday, this group of Veterans were gathered around the book that lists the fallen soldiers from Vietnam. They were looking for the names of those that they served with and as such solidified their unity for a lifetime and were coming to pay their respects.

It's sobering. And honorable.

Today at Jon's school they are having an assembly for Veterans Day- there are 7 faculty members who are veterans. My sweet hubby is one of them.

For him and for all of those who serve and have served to protect our freedom....

Thank You.

I didn't know that Jon served in the military. No wonder I like him so much!
