Case of the Red White and blues

It may not look like it but I was suffering the Red, White and Blues. via LGF (click the link if you have not heard about this AFP report) We went to the Parade for the Fourth this year, and just like last year both the boys loved it. And just like last year every time a veterans or military group passed by I got choked up. Tears welled in my eyes to think of those who have protected this country, giving all that was asked for so little in return. Each time one of those groups passed I yelled out thank you as loud as I could. Though everyone stood and cheered, I didn't hear any other thank you's until the last group was passing when one of the soldiers looked at me and said "thank you" back. To those of you who serve in our military, are retired and the members of your families who sacrifice so much to protect me and my family: Thank You. Your country can never thank you enough.
