Memorial Day is here. For many, myself included, it means cookouts and maybe a trip to the cemetery to put flowers on the graves of all of our loved ones who have passed away. But the real purpose of Memorial Day is to honor all those who gave their lives in service to our country. It's not Veteran's Day, it's not "remember everyone who has died" day... it's a day when we are supposed to pause and remember those in uniform who made the ultimate sacrifice. Take a moment today, at 3pm if possible, to pause and just remember.
Have you heard? I've started a separate blog,
The Sugar Sharks, all about our life with Type I Diabetes.
