As you know, this September 11th marks the ten year anniversary of the horrible terrorist attacks on our country. I love that 9/11 is now called Patriot Day. It is a day to remember and honor. As we commemorate this 10th anniversary, we want to honor the heroes who are on the front lines defending our freedoms and our way of life that we enjoy every day.
On Friday, September 23 at 11:00 am at my home, we will be writing letters to active-duty soldiers.
This is something that truly means a lot to them - more than the packages and goodies, they treasure a hand written note or a child's drawing expressing love, concern and gratitude. It is a gentle and loving reminder that they are remembered ... that they are not alone.
I hope we have a great turn out and get a lot of letters written to our amazing and courageous brothers and sisters serving in the military!
Please join us! It will be a fun and meaningful way to honor 9/11 and The American Spirit.
If you are unable ot join us on the 23rd, please feel free to write as many letters as you want at home! This would make a wonderful family activity. If you have letters* and just want to drop them off to me that's fine. Please get them to me by that day.
*All letters need to be in UNSEALED envelopes! Thanks!
