As we celebrate our nations hero's,
let us give thanks for their military dedication and safety.
We can never be thankful enough to those that serve America,
but we can lift our prayers for them each and everyday.
When you see a military person, take a moment and say thank you. The encouragement will honor them as they realize people care and remember.
My Father Joseph, fought for this country in WWII on Omaha Beach in Normandy France.
He used to say,
"I wouldn't give you a nickle for my experiences, but, I wouldn't sell them for a million dollars either"
Words from a proud and glad to serve, American!
I dedicate this Memorial Day to him
and the bravery he carried as he jumped off the ship and swam to land on Omaha Beach with his fellow soldiers.
God was with him that day as he ran forward to defend America.
When I saw the movie, "Saving Private Ryan" many years ago now,
I realized what my Father had faced that day.
My thought was, wow Dad needs to see this movie,
then I quickly thought, he doesn't need to see this movie, he was there!
Whatever your long weekend plans, enjoy, be safe and REMEMBER!
In Remembrance and honor
to those brave men and women who have served our country to keep us free and to those that continue to sacrifice each and every day for America, we give our heartfelt thankfulness.
Happy Memorial Day
I'll be off the for long weekend.
See you on Tuesday!
Blessings and Southern DayDreams!
