Thankful Thursday :)


Good Afternoon all :)

Again I am joining My Blogger Buddy Annette at So Many Memories blog for "Thankful Thursday".


I LOVE the idea that we, at least for one day a week, stop and think consciously about what we are Thankful for :)

Tomorrow in Remembrance Day in Britain and the Commonwealth (or Poppy Day as we like to call it :) It is also Veterans Day in the U.S.A.

It gives us all pause for thought.

Both mine and my Hubby's Father's were called up as 17 year olds to defend their Country in WWII, thankfully they did not see action but my Uncles did. Our Grandfathers fought during WWI and thankfully survived. This was supposed to be the war that ended all war but didn't and wiped out a generation of young men.


So, I just want to say that I am truly, truly thankful to all the men that have gone before and the brave men and women who have or do place their lives on the line everyday for us to enjoy the amazing freedoms we have every single day.


A very big "THANK YOU" for my freedom.




Don't forget to pop over and visit Annette at So Many Memories to see what she is Thankful for today :)


What are you Grateful for Today???


Hope you all had a wonderful Day! :)
