What did you do fro Memorial Day?
I usualy go the the cemetry and sit for an hour or so and thank all of them for my freedom.
My Grandson (7 years old)asked why I did that and I told him. He looked puzzled and I asked what was the problem. 'But GrandMaMa don't you always say the funerals are for the living not the dead. Why can't we help the living.' So, That is what the family did this weekend. We have started a new tradition 'Helping the Living'
My girls brought over their sewing machines. IWe all brought our RED, WHITE, and BLUE fabric. We taught the men how to do the cutting for the fabric. We did a production line sewing. WE MAKE 150 blocks for the Quilts of Valor. Even the men enjoyed signing their names as they had helped.
Happy Memorial Day
