Memorial Day




Just wanted to say thank you to all of our military men and women. You all have sacrificed your lives so that we can have lazy days at home or fun at the lake. You have given your time, and time with your families. So that we can have cookouts and visit with friends on warm summer days. Thank you all.

My dear friend Kritsi just married a man in the Navy. He is about to get deployed to who knows where. For who knows how long. Before now, I looked at Memorial Day as a day off work. A shortened work week. A time to spend with good friends. Now my friend is in California starting her new life. With her new husband who is one of these military men.

I do admire her. For taking a chance. For believing in love and new beginnings. For the adventure she is about to start.

I can imagine sending my husband off to war. For no telling how long. Not knowing where to. So I dedicate this post to James and all the military men and women. Happy Memorial Day to all. God speed to him and have a safe return home.
