Remembering the Real Reason for Memorial Day
Wow, I can't believe I have been away from LJ for so long. Spilled coffee on my laptop and am finding it diffucult to keep up with everything on my old pc..
Never mind all that.... just look what I have created in front of my school. Each child (over 550) made a red poppy and placed it in our "field" in honor of Memorial Day. Well over 600 poppies are gracing our front lawn. Between the cookouts, parades, and parties, take a minute to remember the real meaning of Memorial Day. Honoring those who served and gave their lives for freedom.
