Today is Memorial Day. A day set aside to remember those who have fought and died for our freedom. As a veteran of this great Nation, I feel its my duty to teach my kids why Memorial Day is important. I lost a friend of mine, while he was fighting in OEF (Operation Enduring Freedom), and in honor of him, and my fallen comrades, I taught my children why I salute these men and women. I know that my babies are young, but my belief is that if I teach them while they are young, they will be able to forever remember why this day is important to me. Below are pictures of us honoring this day.

Same video, different view.
Tater's journal assignment for today.
We lit this candle in honor of all those who lost their lives fighting for our freedom. This candle stayed lit during school.
This was just a glimpse of our reverence to every sailor, air men, soldier, and Marine who gave their lives. To you I salute you. To your families I say May God Bless You.
HOOAH!!!!
