Traditions...

What are some of your family traditions? It doesn't have to be holiday traditions, if it is that is good also, but it could be something you do in the summer time, a specific trip you take every year, an important meal, or a way you celebrate birthdays. It can be more than one tradition - it really is up to you - but write about something you or your family does consistently from year to year.

Veterans Day...

Yesterday we honored those who served or serve in uniform. This is very close to my heart as I am married to a Veteran! So today I would like you to journal about Veterans in your life and about their accomplishments. If you don't know any Veterans then write about someone you think is a true patriot - maybe they volunteer their time to make this country a better place but don't formally serve in uniform - I think military wives fall into this catagory. Okay I promised not to make this blog personal - just a place to get journaling prompts - sorry - tomorrow I will return to my normal format - but today - this is something I am passionate about - so you get a little commentary with the prompt!
