For Two Hundred and Thirty Two Years...


Brave Americans have been fighting for this country.



They served...



They sacrificed.



For you and I.



Have you thanked an American Veteran lately?



What are you waiting for?


To all my fellow Americans who are serving, have served, have loved ones serving or have lost loved ones who served...
Thank you and God bless you.

    Peanut,
    I am moved to tears with this post. So very true.

    Charlotte had "team" at school yesterday and they wrote letters to Veteran's. I asked her why and she told me to Thank them for serving our country. God BLess our Veterans and our teachers that they are instilling this in Children early, even with all that is going on in our country today.

    Thanks for posting. :0)

    Big Hugs,
    Tink
