Happy Veterans Day
As you might know, today is Veterans Day in the United States. One thing I am thankful for today is our veterans. I would like to take a moment to say “thank you” to all the veterans who have served our country.
And I am proud to say that one of those veterans is my own dad who served in the United States Army. So I would like to extend a special “thank you” to him as well. 💙
Those of us who live in freedom do so because of others who made our freedom possible.
I hope you all have a good day. If you know any veterans, take a moment to say thank you.
I have a dental appointment this morning. They will be replacing an old filling.
I will be back tomorrow to continue the series on gratitude.

I have been thinking about Veteran’s Day all morning as I’ve scrolled through my various social media feeds. I’ve been learning about red poppies and the significance they hold. I’ve traveled back in time to Armistice Day and wondered about what that day felt like on both sides of the War. I am eternally grateful for those who served and sacrificed. Thanks for this timely post, Bridget.

Well I stand corrected. WordPress didn’t get their act together. You comment was sent to spam again 🙁 … Thank you for your thoughts on this. I love hearing your comments especially on some of American holidays. As someone who got their citizenship in recent years and someone who loves our country, you remind the rest of us that sometimes we take things for granted. So thank you for helping us to give thanks for what we have, Rainer!

Good ol’ trusty WP! Maybe it’s in how I login to comment—which always seems to be a surprise and rarely the same back to back.
My pleasure—Bridget. I’m grateful for America and the responsibility we’ve been given to steward its past, present, and future as citizens.

You’re welcome. And thank you for stopping by. Yes, my appointment was very quick. And they did a good job of numbing my mouth so I didn’t have any pain. Just a droopy face for a bit. Lol. Thank you! 🤗
