My brother

That first photo is a picture of my three older brothers. And I love it a lot.
But that "soldier" on the left is who has been on my mind all day.

Because it is Veterans Day and as you can see from the second photo, he is just that. I will always
be thankful to him for his incredible service and sacrifice (I still cry when I think back to those
days when he was injured so terribly and we could have so easily lost him), but I look up to and
admire him for many other reasons. Too many to list here, but I will just say he is one of the most
inspirational people I have ever known and has accomplished things many of us only dream about.

Today I share my profound gratitude for so many who have and do serve and sacrifice​ and support
and make my life possible. I'm so deeply thankful for each one of them. But this Veterans Day,
I am feeling especially thankful for a little boy named Kamm, who grew up to be a real soldier.

My brother, my hero.
