In Honor of Veteran's Day...

The first grade presented a special program in honor of Veteran's day next week. To start off, the school and parents sang the National Anthem and then said the pledge of allegiance. I don't know why, but I get a little choked up over these things. With all that our nation is facing these days, sometimes I feel like our country's patriotism is hanging by a thread. It was nice having the opportunity to voice my patriotism and to be reminded to honor those that protect and have protected our freedom. Here's to our future leaders. I just love the expressions on their faces and especially that last one of Connor. He looks so proud to be American!
