VETERANS DAY

I always love Veteran's Day, just for the simple fact that there is an assembly at the school. They invite all of the Veterans from around the valley and then the kids at the school sing and today they did a skit. There is one song that always gets me when the kids sing it. It is called "You are our Hero's". (if you want to listen to it just go to youtube and punch in "you are our Hero's, it is the first one that came up that I clicked on, after you listen to it you will understand what I am talking about, then just htink in your mind all the grandpa vets crying). Let me just tell you about our choir teacher, she is amazing, so she teaches all the kids this song and they all sing it together with the music. I just kept talking to myself (in my head) so that I would not cry, I have learned over the years NEVER LOOK AT THE GRANDPA VETERANS, well I did, so it was talk faster in my head so that I wouldn't cry, then silly me look over at Mrs. Wagstaff and she is in a full fledged cry, CRAP!!! Well you know me, here came the tears. After the song was over I got it together but by now all of the kindergarten class is looking at us and just staring. After we leave one little girl asked me why we were crying in there, and I told her that it was just that all of these people have died in the wars so that we get to come to school, and before I could even finish my sentence she blurts out "or maybe you just felt the Spirit". Funny huh. So thank you to all of the Veterans!!!

I forgot to tell you that Taylor Ann did a great job on saying her part, Hailey said that when they played the Star Spangle Banner the Vets there cryed to because they sounded so good. Good Job kids, I love you.
