Happy Memorial Day

I know many of you come here
for your morning smile
but today is just a
bit different.
I have never done this
before but I was so 
touched by this
video that it
brought me to 
tears.
If you have a moment
to watch it I think it 
is something that will
touch your life.
God bless each and every
one of our service men 
and service women
that so willingly
give their all so 
that we can be free.
God Bless You
on this
Memorial Day.

Also, if you weren't here yesterday
please read the next post down
and go visit Laurie!
I also wanted to add that Laurie will
not be able to visit your blog daily
and/or comment because of
her limited vision...and she has some
really BAD days with sight.
However, she will be visiting you
in spirit each and every day.
Blessings-Diana

This is such a touching song...I end up crying every time I hear it. Thanks is not enough to say to the ones who give all...or the ones who bring them home.

I come here not just for my morning smile, but for how genuine and sincere you are every day dear Diana... thank you for this post... and for honoring all of our service men and women this day... I notice many blogs do not even mention any of this, and for that I am sad... we need to remember this day for what it really stands for, not just another "fufu" blog day... xoxo Julie Marie

What a very moving tribute, Diana, and how very important it is for us to remember the sacrifices made by our service men and women. We should also remember the families and friends who grieve for them. Angel Flight makes me think of the beautiful mosaic ceiling I showed you in the Cambridge American Cemetery with the angels flying alongside the planes.

Hello Diana

A beautiful tribute to our soldiers and loved and lost ones.

I thought I was following you but realized not, so I have immediately signed up for your blog. We have many mutual blogging friends.
I will look forward to your visit and comments also.

This was a touching tribute. I saw the movie "Taking Chance" with Kevin Bacon. You should see it. It was also very touching. I to am grateful for our military. My hat is off to them and my prayers are always with them. Hugs Anne
