Memorial Weekend Thank You

Watching cartoons on a Sunday morning.

The other day Owen and Daddy were talking about what life was like when Daddy was Owen's age. As the conversation ended, our "deep thinker" announces, "Daddy, my life is way better than yours!" On so many levels he's right, but I hope he realizes why it is. I've been explaining to both Owen and Allie what Memorial Day is for and what freedom is. I know they are both a little young to fully get it, but I do know they are starting to understand what it is to be thankful for what we have.

I would like to thank all of those brave men and women who have fought for our freedom. As much as we take it for granted, I know that life wouldn't be what it is without it.
