The Journey

Veteran's Day Parade

Our homeschool group has participated the past three years in the Veteran's Day parade that our town does.  This was the first year, we were able to join the group and I was so glad we were able to do so.

I have family that has served in the military and so Veteran's day reminds me of them. 

I was saddened to see the low attendance to honor those men and women that have done so much for our country.  I also realize that I have been guilty of doing the same.  This is the first Veteran's day event that I have attended -- that I know of.

Anyway, we passed out candy to the kids and said a big "Thank you" to the vets we passed.

To any veteran reading this:

Thank you!
