Thank You Veterans!!!

Philippians 1:3: I thank my God every time I remember you.

This was going to be a very different post. Now, I'm going to tell you what is on my mind and heart. Several years ago I worked in the Recreation Department of the West Virginia Veterans' Home. There were old and not so old vets there. Some had drug and alcohol problems and some didnot. They ALL served America, either in war or no war. I do thank God for our Vets. Because of them I can write this blog and do other things I take for granted.

Working at the Veterans' Home allowed me to see what men and women truly give up; a huge part of their lives. Military life takes its toll on families. Many lost their family and if they didn't lose them they missed seeing their children grow up in steps. They missed family outings, etc. They gave the most important thing of all: their time.

Thank you Veterans and those soon to be for giving your most precious thing, time to protect me and our Country!!!
