Love to see that you are making sure that people ( from all walks of life) are doing the simple things. It just goes to show that the little things in life still do matter. Well done.

Last year I was at National Headquarters helping to sort the holiday cards. I opened a card there was a picture of a snowman that had been drawn by a third grader.. The snowman had two ammuninitoin belts across his tummy, with a helment and a rifle.The caption read." Not only Strong, but Snowman Strong! Merry Christmas, Soldier." Just helping for this one day made my holiday more meaningful. America cares for their military and their veterans. As a long-time Red Cross volunteer, I think this project is one of the best.

Puts a lump in your throat. Great job by Amy Grant (despite cold fingers) and the whole Red Cross team who pulled off an amazing event and really made Veterans Day meaningful for all of us.
