For Those Who Serve
This weekend we observe Veteran's Day. Nearly everyone I know can think of someone who has served our beautiful country by spending years in a branch of our armed services. Let them know that their service was appreciated! Below the flag you will find one simple thing that you and family can do to spread good cheer.
Find a card or two - Christmas card, holiday Greetings, Thanksgiving Card, Get well Wishes, A funny card, or eve a Thank you card - and send them to the address listed below. You decide if you want to include your return address. Brighten the hospital stay for someone who has served our country!
Pass this on to others via email. Send it to your teacher friends so that their classrooms of kids can make cards. Share the love for these special men and women who are away from their families! Better yet, pack them up a scarf, hat or mittens when you send out that card.

Very sweet thought! Hope you have a great weekend!
You have the coolest ideas, Karen! Thank you for sharing that one.
We really missed you on Tuesday night...a LOT!
Whoops! I need to update my blog -- I got a comment that the USPS will no longer deliver to "any soldier." Walter Reed Medical Center has a list of other things you can do to show your support, though: http://www.wramc.amedd.army.mil/Lists/WRNews/DispForm.aspx?Id=25&
