Remember, Honor, Celebrate...Those Who Served️

Memorial Day has always been a celebrated tradition in my family.  The day is set aside to honor those brave soldiers who sacrificed for our freedom.  Although it was at the end of May, and we had to get to bed early for school the next day, this was always our 'first summer' holiday even when the weather did not cooperate.

My parents always made sure that each holiday we had a commemorative outfit to wear, as we ate from the collective bounty of food: barbecue ribs, chicken, potato salad, coleslaw, baked beans, macaroni salad, greens, mac 'n cheese, banana pudding, caramel cake...and then the sparklers after dusk.

With so many kids, I remain in awe at how perfect and rich I felt growing up, though we lived modestly.

This year, has been an incredible bounty of blessings for us at Beauty of Creating, as we continue to spread our grateful wings.  As we celebrate with food and fellowship, let us not forget those brave soldiers, with honor and thanks!
