Day # 11 I Am Thankful For. . . .

THIS VETERAN!

This is my Grandpa.
He was in the 65th Infantry Division under General Patton.

I've been thinking a lot about him today.

A few years ago I discovered THESE!

Letters that my grandparents wrote to each other during WWII.



I am so grateful that my grandma saved them.

I wasn't very close to my paternal grandparents, but I feel reconnected with them as I read their letters.

They both made great sacrifices during that time and I know that it forever changed them.

And I have to say their letters have forever changed me.
