Memorial Day 2010

Happy Memorial Day 2010.

I hope that you are enjoying this day with family and friends, as we are here at Busy-Dad-E.

And while you're doing that, take a moment to remember those men and women who gave the ultimate sacrifice so that you CAN enjoy it.

Below is a (ere so slightly modified) repost from Veteran's Day

My mother told me once in my adolescent years that "you're happier when you're busy."

While that's true to a large extent, it's also important to take time to pause, reflect, enjoy, and pay respects.

(Those of you who know may be scratching your heads because you didn't know I actually have a "pause button", probably because it's usually broken.)

But on Memorial Day, we pause to show respect and to remember all those who have given the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom, at home and abroad.

Thank you for giving me the freedom to enjoy my family.

Today, and everyday.


Have a great week,
May God Bless America,
Busy-Dad-E
