Happy Memorial Day! For Parker this day was a big learning experience. Parker learned about Memorial Day at an all day celebration at his school this past Thursday. He chose to hang Grandpa G's army photo up on the memorial wall in the school as an honor for the time he served our country and the sacrifices he made to do so! He was so proud to bring it to school. He got to tell everyone all about his Grandpa and WWII-For us this is usually just a day to relax and catch up, but Steve and I had the pleasure of photographing a family last weekend where this day may mean so much more...
As we honor our late/present service men and women today, we won't forget those that give up time with their loved ones and take on double duty here at home to keep their families going. This young mom of three is sending her beloved husband off to Irag for his third tour in 5 years! A dear friend of hers called to see if we could fit her family in before he left in early June, of course we did what we could. Still not being able to make it to the photo session, she is positive her husband will love to have a few pictures to bring with him. For Steve and I, we learned to honor those that are no longer here and those that are working so hard to continue to keep our country safe and all their loved ones at home for giving up their precious time for all of us!
Thank you Barb!
