Memorial Day Memories
We're keeping the real meaning of Memorial Day in mind this weekend, and we want to know who you're remembering this long weekend.
The following is a Memorial Day essay, written by Ali M., a 3rd Grader at Academy Elementary School in Madison, Connecticut. (Courtesy: http://www.usmemorialday.org/alim.htm)
"As the flowers rest on the decorated graves and the sunlight shines on the beautiful sailboats, Uncle Sam whispers in my ear about how we should care for the soldiers and remember the ones that have died. Swimming pools open, BBQs fry. Today is the day to think of what they have done for us. There are blurs of red, white and blue marching down the street and flags are lowered at half-mast. But we should always remember and never forget what set us free, from this very day on."
Let us know who you're keeping in mind.
