Veterans Day

By -
Veterans Day is the date we honor living veterans and those still serving.
Today is the day that we celebrate the lives of those that have served our country. Today is the day that I celebrate my 89 year old grandfather that served in WWII. Today is the day that I celebrate my uncles that served in Vietnam. Today is the day that I celebrate those that are right now defending my freedom. Today is the day that I celebrate the red, white and blue. Today I am proud to be an American.

The other half of the night Cannon was up every two hours until I let him sleep with us. Audrey actually stayed in her bed and only cried once. This brings me to last night. 11:00 PM I turn out the lights and go to bed, thinking to myself that Cannon will probably be up in an hour. 12:00 AM Cannon wakes up. I feed him. 1:00 AM I wake up, slumped over with Cannon still in my arms to Audrey screaming. I quickly put Cannon back in his bed and go see Audrey. She is standing up with her blanket and sippy, has already said "good bye" to binky and is ready to get out of bed. I bring her back to bed with me. 2:00 AM Fight with Audrey about the covers (she...
