This date has double meaning for me, girls. Yes, my father and uncles served in WWII, but also on this date in 1911, that is 11/11/11, my paternal grandparents were married. Of course, this was years before it became Veterans Day, but I am so proud they chose what turned out to be a famous date.
So, I always have lots to think of on this day. And though I wrote a lot of posts, I could not sign off without acknowledging this day.
However, you celebrate--with wine music, movies or anything else, make the most of this day and recall sacrifices made for us by countless military personnel and their families.
Especially on this day, I feel like that Yankee Doodle boy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
