Memorial Day is an absolutely amazing holiday that in my opinion does not get enough recognition. I think that there are too many people who just use it as an excuse to go camping and do silly things that in no way give proper remembrance to the fallen soldiers of our sweet country.
There are so many people who have given their lives so that we can be free and enjoy our lives without much worry.
To give their lives is giving the ultimate sacrifice.
Memorial day is for them.
We had the opportunity of being in a parade to support Grandpa Allen's campaign to be the Republican Candidate for a family court judgeship-- to put it simply. Although we were campaigning, we tried to remain focused on the true meaning of the day.
After the parade was all said and done, we got to go to a BBQ that we were invited to at the church. There were some water toys so you girls got to dress up in your matching bathing suits.
It ended up being a really great day.
My advice to you for this day: Treat it with reverence.
Give thanks to those who have served.
I love you dear girl,
Mom
