Today is Remembrance Day .. it is not a National Holiday in Canada .. although i cannot think of a better day to declare one. Remembrance Day didn’t mean a lot to me.. till Chloe went to school, afterall, the future generation should get to know of all the Canadian soldier who was stationed away from home and died to protect Canada. And what about those who are currently still in Iraq or Afghan, don’t they need to be remembered too..?? I am sure their family here in Canada is missing them. So for those who are in Canada.. do remember to tell your children.. what Remembrance Day means.
And to my Chloe.. Remembrance Day means.. “to remember the soldiers.. and those who died for us.” And that’s good enough for me.. from a 4.9 months old.
