Remembrance

I am so proud to be a Canadian. I get a frog in my throat during the national anthem at the olympics and other sporting events. I love to teach my kids at school about how priviledged we are just to have been born here. I am honoured to have known those who have fought in the war for my freedom and the freedom of others. I will remember my Grandpa and Great Grandpa tomorrow. I will think about the unbelievable tragedy that they must have seen as soldiers in each World War. We can't take this freedom for granted. So, tomorrow when I sing O Canada, I'll stand a little straighter, and sing a little louder. Lest we forget...
