On the weekend before Veterans Day, our American Heritage Girls troops place rose petals on the graves at our local Veterans Cemetery after the Boy Scouts have placed flags at each site. It's a lovely tradition, one that connects the girls to the world in a way that parades and speeches cannot. For more "Wordless" Wednesday posts, visit Wordless Wednesday, Momspective, and Five Minutes for Mom.
That's a great idea.

ReplyDeleteI have two boy scouts and a girl scout. I choked up when I got to your rose petal part. Oh my goodness... how beautiful!
