Happy Veterans Day to all the people who are in my life who have served our country! Heres a side note about that: Recently I dropped my last name from my facebook page. Many of my friends have asked why. I dont think Ive answered that yet, so here is your answer : ) As most of you have known, my mother has struggled over the last five years or so with her health. At one point, while she was in the ICU after her second open heart surgery, I was holding her hand with my left and typing my thesis with my right. I cannot tell you in words what struggles my mother has surmounted; but I can tell you what I have learned from her. My mom has the heart of a fighter, and a loyal one at that. When my dad was in the Air Force, my mom spent a lot of time on his deployments by herself. Yet, both of my parents have been loyal for 57 years. My mom taught me to love through adversity, to show my compassion for others, and to cry with those who need it. I am so thankful that I had such a good example of what it means to show RESPECT and to help others. So, today, on Veterans Day, I honor my MOMs service to our country too. When my dad was away in Vietnam, when he performed his duties for our country, my mom was here at home, supporting him. Im PROUD to share my name with her (Charlotte Kay), and to show her my respect, I am Sabrina Kay. I say all of this knowing she will never see it; but it doesnt matter. I KNOW it. : )
