Sitting here this morning thinking about how blessed I am to live in a free country. We live in an amazing place. Yesterday during our worship service was devoted to honoring those who have served and those currently serving to protect our freedom. It was very emotional.
Last night we watched a fantastic Memorial Day concert on PBS. So many amazing stories of service and sacrifice. My heart hurt as I thought about all the families impacted by loss suffered due to war.
I pray I never take for granted the life I get to live thanks to our military.
Thank you to all the men and women who have served and are serving and thank you to the families who do their own tour of duty when a loved one is deployed.
