If you are reading this and know such a family – love them. I’m not sure he ever really got over losing his little brother. Unfortunately there are many families grieving in the same way today. Thankfully he returned from WWII, unlike so many others including his younger brother. As a veteran of WWII he was the bravest man I’ve ever known. This printable is particularly special to me as it is floating in a window that used to be part of my grandfather’s house. No surprise that it’s chalkboard art – you know, my fave. I’ve seen this particular phrase floating around for years but finally had the chance to bring it to life in our home. That’s why I love this printable inspired by our national anthem. God bless America and those who have served and protected it. After all, our country and its freedoms are amazingly special. Patriotic decor abounds as Memorial Day weekend is fast approaching!
