Can you believe this is our seventh Monday?
Already?
Today’s challenge is near and dear to my little pittering heart.
There is nothing I love more than our military.
Except maybe nachos, I do love nachos.
No matter your political beliefs, or how you feel about war…you have to respect people who are willing to lay their lives on the line day in and day out for all the freedoms we take for granted. I am not tough enough, even though I would love to serve our country, I am just not that brave.
I always try to show support, donate, and send love to our military.
Today I hope you will join me.
I hope today you can take a few minutes out of your day to write a little note of encouragement and appreciation to our American heroes.
Don’t know a soldier personally?
Here is a great resource to help you say thanks.
All this challenge has to cost you is a little time and one stamp….unless you are like me and sending out as many letters as you can write from the heart before your hand cramps. Holler for soldiers.
This one is such a lovely idea. Thanks for posting it. This past Christmas I was asked to write a card to the troops. My ex was a Marine and I know they truly appreciate it.
To this day any military movie, scene, photo still makes me tear up a bit. Last night I just watched the movie Valentines Day & totally teared up for Halle Berry’s scene.
I wrote this note a long time ago: https://www.facebook.com/notes/trisha-d-blogging/respect/118199638228376
I am the same way! I get really choked up when I see anything military or patriotic. I am such a sap!
I can’t wait to get home and read your note (silly work computers banning facebook and what not!)
Now THIS I can get behind! My (soldier) boyfriend thinks me writing letters to military is like thanking ourselves… but I just stick my tongue out at him and do it anyway! Thanks for posting this 🙂
Hahaha….that’s right! You never know if you will make someones day! What if they have no one writing to them? I got your back girl 🙂
Exactly. Stinky boys think they’re sooo tough 😉
Truth!!!!
