My husband ...In regards to your #8, I so hear you. My husband is an active duty soldier and he cringes when people say "Happy Memorial Day" to him. I do, too. The losses are very real to us. For us, it is a day of remembrance. We hold a dinner and toast our fallen friends and pray for their families. I appreciate your facebook status very much.Jhona O.https://www.blogger.com/profile/17526163985882168453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3937120481424950544.post-40542689152648347812013-05-29T11:46:18.916-04:002013-05-29T11:46:18.916-04:00I like your Memorial Day status...there is indeed ...I like your Memorial Day status...there is indeed confusion. I saw on a friend's facebook status something along the lines of this-'Thinking of friends and family today, remembering my grandmother, dad, aunts, and pets (yes-pets!!) no longer with us.' I wanted to add 'you forgot the military men and women' but I refrained. <br /><br />I'd love to be surrounded by my family instead of separated by many states.

It's a day to specifically remember and honor those in the military who gave their lives - who died in battle. Veterans have their own day in October - and should rightly be honored then.

LOL Love your random thought and yes we do seem to put all services together, and it's nice to be reminded that they are not together. OH if we could all 4 grand kids in the same state - how wonderful that would be (and that state NH BTW)LynnMariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00638947118932466226noreply@blogger.com
