Thank you to all our veterans and their families.

We were at the Magic Kingdom yesterday. We arrived right as the 3p parade was winding down. There was a marine in uniform watching the parade. I saw him when we entered the park, as we bee-lined toward the restrooms. The parade ended as we exited the restrooms and we walked past the marine. I overheard another man thank the marine for his service. And then I cried when a mother asked the marine if he would pose for a picture with her two small children. I should have taken a picture from the back as this marine posed with the children. It moved me. How wonderful to be at the rat’s home and see a parent want her children’s picture with a hero. I choked back my tears for the next ten minutes. No exaggeration.

I love our flag and take lots of pictures of her.

Happy Veteran’s Day.

I can never say “thank you” enough.
