Happy Veterans Day

This is quite a week...three big days in a row.

First the Marine Corps Birthday, today Veterans Day, and tomorrow? My birthday.

I took an extra moment today to reflect on what this day means. I have a wall in my house that is covered with pictures of our family members who were in the military.

My maternal grandfather served in the Army during WWII, my dad went to Vietnam as a Corpsman, Michael's paternal grandfather served in the Navy, Michael's dad retired as a Rear Admiral in the Navy.

And, of course, there's Michael.

On this day I am very proud to be part of two families who have given so much to this country.

Happy Veterans Day.

*Note: I've never thought about the fact that there is no apostrophe in Veterans Day until today. I decided to look it up and came up with this info: "Veterans Day does not include an apostrophe but does include an "s" at the end of "veterans" because it is not a day that "belongs" to veterans, it is a day for honoring all veterans". Interesting. FYI, I found this information Here.
