How's your memory?

Memorial Day. Hey, isn't that the day we celebrate the start of summer by having barbeques? Huh? You mean there's more to it?

Yes, there's so much more. Today is the day we honor those who gave their lives to preserve the freedom we have in this country. My heart is full of gratitude for the brave men and women who loved their country enough to give the ultimate gift to defend it. And to the family members who have lost loved ones who were serving our country, thank you. Your sacrifice was great indeed.

I hope you all have a good Memorial Day. The Life is Funny Blog Carnival will return tomorrow.
