Today my kids and I attended our county’s Veterans’ Day celebration, one of my favorite events to photograph and to attend. Not all of my kids “get” Veterans’ Day—one, in fact, tends to complain year after year—but sometimes as parents we keep plugging away, doing the right thing, showing up at the right places, even if the effort is misunderstood or under-appreciated at the time.
As a Veteran so eloquently stated today, “We honor the dead by serving the living.”
How can we serve?
What did your camera shoot this week?
Love all the art this week at your house – those leaf mason jars! And the your annual habits celebrating Veteran’s Day.
Great photos! Thank you for sharing these here!
Awesome photos! This soldier’s wife thanks you abundantly for taking your children to the Veteran’s Day celebration. So many do not. It is great that your county even has a special commemoration. Even as a nation at war, so many have forgotten. The front page of a newspaper near here didn’t even mention Veteran’s Day at all, let alone on the front cover, where it should have been. So many have served to give us the freedoms we have. It is heartwarming to see that your family remembers that and honors those who have sacrificed.
Many, many blessings!
