Remebrance Day/Veteran's Day

Tyler is at the age now where he can get a basic understanding of why this day is so important. He is also capable of learning why we should honour those men and women who have sacrificed their lives during past wars and those who continue fighting for our freedom now, especially since his dad is one of those men. So with this being said, today Tyler and I had a little history lesson. We also made poppies to wear near our hearts during our moment of silence and I read the poem 'In Flanders Fields' to him. My hope is that as he grows older he learns to appreciate more how lucky we are to live with such freedom.
