Belated (as usual)

My husband is a veteran; our son is serving now. Surely Veteran's Day would not pass by unnoticed by someone like me! Yes, it would have if not for the phone call from our son. I have two excuses: 1. We honored vets in the church service Sunday, so it was as if the holiday was over. 2. My mind is shriveling.

Here is a big "thanks" to veterans and the military men and women who are serving now! You have given much to protect our freedoms! God bless you.
