Craig and I went to Washington, DC with my parents last week to visit our daughter Stephanie who is working on Capitol Hill. We visited the World War II Memorial which is just beautiful. My dad talked all about the war and the fact that he went to Korea just a decade later. I guess my grandfather, who fought in France during World War I, really wanted to fight in World War II but he was a little too old at the time and he had a family.
We saw all these awesome Veterans walking around and this nice group of school kids were walking by and their teacher had all the kids shake their hands and say hello and show respect to them. I was so impressed I took their photo. I couldn't help myself and I wanted to get a picture with them too. Craig took the picture and when the man asked me if that was my husband and I said yes, he said, "then I'll hug you a little tighter!" It was very cute. I wanted to cry I was so proud of these men.
