7yo and I have a regular Tuesday morning date to our favorite coffee shop. Each Tuesday, we have a schoolwork marathon over coffee and muffins while 3yo plays at Mother's Day Out. This morning CNN was playing on mute in the coffee shop. There was some coverage of Veteran's Day events at Arlington Cemetery. 7yo looked up, read the captions and said,
"Mom, what is Veteran's Day? Is it when we honor animal doctors?"

LOL - That's cute.
I'm disappointed that we weren't able to do anything today for Veterans day. My husband is in the military, but he had to work, and I was sick all day today - still a little sick actually.
I was hoping to have a day of Remembrance. Perhaps a day where we go and purchase items to donate to the troops in Iraq & Afghanistan, or just go around the base and hand something out to say "Thank you".
