Veteran's Day

Thank you Veterans!!


Who are veterans?  Veterans are people who serve in the military and survive that service.  Veterans Day used to be Armistice Day,  People remembered World War I at 11:00 on 11/11.  Now, we honor all the soldiers that serve in the Armed Forces on Veteran's Day.

WE HAVE SCHOOL TODAY!  It's a holiday, but not a day off from school!!  Thank you for honoring our Veterans with a minute of silence at 11:00 AM.








This next song is a great example of a south-eastern rural US accent. "Ain't" is an "uneducated" way to say "aren't."  Cus or cuz aren't words.  They are "text" for "because."

 Do you make XXXX to mean kisses, and OOO to mean hugs in your letters?





How often do you write letters?  Were letters ever really important to you?  What makes you proud?  Do you know anyone that serves in the military?  Can you describe that person and what he or she does?

Veterans are people to whom we owe all our respect because they put their lives for us we had a safe home. All the sacrifice of veterans recognize it in his day.

22 years ago I met and fell in love with a hero of the homeland of Colombia. Back then he was a Marine Lieutenant of the Navy of Colombia. Today is a Full Colonel.

In these 22 years, I have always been doing his duty fully. He made operational plans. He has conducted his men in combat, he has accompanied disband illegal armed groups, drug cartels who are a constant threat to the security of our country.

He is part of operations in air, land and rivers of Colombia; is a real COMMAND. He also caring Homeland caring for people, free them ....... is a great father, a great husband and MY HERO !!!!!!!!!!!!
