I've decided to do a post a day for a year on what I am thankful for. There are a couple reasons I have decided to do this... one of which is that I feel that with writing down something that I'm thankful for everyday for a year will help me to become a more positive person. :-)
Day One:
In the spirit of Veterans day... I am thankful for the men in my life that have served and that are currently serving our country! Thank you for all that you have done and all that you do!
My great grandpa served in the Marine Corps during WWII. He is now in his mid 90's and has been such an inspiration to me.
My Papa (grandpa) served in the Air Force. He is fun to be around and has also been a big inspiration to me. If there is something he wants to do or try....he just does it. He lives life to the fullest!
My Grandpa (right) and Uncle (left) both served in the Navy. I love these two so much! They are such big teddy bears! I know that they will always be there for me!
My cousin (center) currently serves in the Army. I am so proud of him with how far he has gone and what he has achieved since enlisting in the Army! I know that he can and will achieve what ever he puts his mind to!
One of my best friends currently serves in the Marine Corps and is currently deployed. He is one of the funniest and sweetest guys you will ever meet! He always knows how to brighten my day even if my day doesn't need anymore brightening...it somehow gets even better! I am so lucky to have him in my life and as one of my best friends and I can't wait till you come home!
I am so happy to have these men in my life! I am so proud of you all! Thank you for all that you do, both with the military and in everyday life!
Happy Veterans Day!
What a beautiful post! So heartwarming and well written. Love it! :-)
