In honor of Veterans Day, the Girl Scouts at our elementary school led the entire student body in a Flag ceremony and Pledge of Allegiance followed by a moment of silence It was a moving experience to stand among 600 young children in perfect silence in gratitude to those who have given all for their freedom.
Let's be honest, there might have been a few tears rolling down my face when I thought about the gravity of what some in our country have "given"by not only in laying down their lives, but for the mothers and fathers and wives/husbands who have sacrificed so much for me.
On days like this, I'm so proud to be an American and so grateful to God for all the blessings He has poured out on our Country. Thanks be to God.
