Everyone went home last night but Mom and today I spent some time on the beach by myself. I think about my family and how patriotic we are. Both of my Grandfathers, Papa (Mom's Dad), Daddy Neil (Dad's Dad), and Dad served their country in the military. I learned to say the Pledge of Allegiance and to put my hand over my heart for it and the National Anthem. Recently my subdivision flag was looking horrible and tattered. Not only did the gentleman in charge not know how to take the flag down but he didn't know how to properly dispose of it. I took care of that and even offered to purchase a new one. (He had already ordered one) Maybe it's just the way I was raised but these are just things you pay attention to. We have the right of freedom and there are men and women fighting for us still today. That's why every year I text and call the people I personally know to thank them for their service. My cousin's husband is currently in Texas and will be deployed for a second time in the coming weeks. JOEY-we all LOVE you and are keeping you in our prayers.
My point is that you should thank our service men and women-past and present.
