At the 11th hour, on the
11th day of the 11th month in 1918, the guns of WWI fell silent and
"Armistice Day" was born. Eight years later a Presidential
Proclamation invited people to observe the day with appropriate ceremonies.
With the passage of time it was changed to "Veterans Day".
We have attended the
veteran’s day parade in 2008,
2009
and 2010. It is such a touching event to
honor these men and women who have ensured our freedom. Again this year we headed out with our
homeschooling friends to the downtown Dallas
Veteran’s Day Parade, waving flags, holding signs and cheering.
Moreover, I will give you what you
have not asked for—
both wealth and honor—
so that in your lifetime you will have no equal
