Veterans Day Assembly

Today for Veterans Day, the 2nd Graders had a special assembly. Some of the students were able to invite some of their family members who are Veterans to come and share some of their experiences from serving in the military. Adam asked his Uncle Danny to come and was so thrilled when Danny said he could be there. Adam literally prayed for 3 days that Danny would be able to come. Danny told the kids about the places he has been as a soldier and some of the things he experienced while he was gone. He encouraged the kids to write letters to our soldiers because he always liked receiving letters while he was away from home. 




 Adam was so excited when it was Danny's turn to talk!






We have a special place in our hearts for those who serve our country. We've had grandpa's and uncles who have served our country and thankfully made it home safely. We are so proud of them and are thankful for their example and sacrifice!!
