If you're anything like me, dates often escape you. I wandered up to the mailbox after work and wandered why my cousin's birthday card was still in the box. Why wasn't my mail picked up? It took me a bit of puzzling over this but I finally realized that it was Veterans' Day and since it's a federal holiday no mail delivery(duh).
I have so many veterans in my life: family, friends, students, neighbors. I think I'll call one of my favorite veterans - my dad - to see if he enjoyed one of the many veterans breakfasts available in our area. He was a SeaBee - a member of the construction battalion of the Navy. NOT the Salvation Army as my son told his class prior to the school's Veterans' Day program.
To all the veterans out there, thanks for everything you've done.
I received my birthday card on time! Thank you!😘
