Last night two of my kids and three of my grand kids showed up at the house for at least a few hours. It was really good to see them. They are still here for a while and it is fun to have them. Right now I am the patient for my grand son playing doctor.....he loves giving me shots in the arm - loves it - I have had more shots in the last ten minutes than I have had in the last 40 years.
First crack out of bed this morning I came down and read my e-mail. Included in that mail were several things from my youngest brother regarding Memorial Day. I forwarded one to just family and one to family and friends. They were awesome. They really made me think of what this day is all about. This weekend we celebrate the lives of all the veterans that went into harms way (many thousands to never return) so that we could continue to have our way of life and our freedom.
I must say that thinking about all of those sacrifices of all those people put a lump in my throat that probably won't leave this weekend. Think about why we have Memorial Day this weekend.
