Today at my school we had a Veteran's Day program starting at 9am.  The Veterans and their children or grandchildren walked the halls with all the students lining the walls.   All the students wore red, white, or blue; or red, white, and blue.  I was not a part of that part of the event.  I was in the cafeteria with all the third graders. We were waiting for the veterans to end the parade listening to us sing five great patriotic songs.

Papa and Barbara came to my event.  This was the first time Papa had been to this annual event.  He said it was very touching watching the veterans and their children or grandchildren make their way to seats in the cafeteria.   I wish Great Grandpa was still here, then I would have been able to march with him through the school hallways and we could have gone to the cake reception for the veterans.

I came home from school and didn't have time to talk about my evening plans because I wanted to go play.  In the end Barbara and I met Mimz at Sprouts about 5pm so Mimz could take me to my baseball practice in the cages because the fields are too wet.
