The host of this weeks Fun Monday is Kitten and here is the assignment she gave us:
“I would like to know “Who is Your Hero” Not from TV, but your real life hero. It can one or it can be many. Just someone you look up to. You can do this any way you would like and if you want or can, share pictures.”
As soon as I read the assignment that Kitten gave us I knew the answer to the question- my parents are my heroes. But to really put into words how I feel and why they are my heroes- the words are just not coming. So, my Fun Monday is going to be really short this week.
To put it simply- my parents raised me right, have always been willing to do anything and everything for me, made plenty of sacrifices along the way, and I know they love me unconditionally. My parents are my heroes.
Stop by Kitten’s blog to see who else is participating this week.

Ditto!
Sometimes, it’s enough that we acknowledge them, we may not be able to articulate it in the best way…
Happy Fun Monday!

I remember one of my creative writing teachers in the past once said “The simpler the better”….so, tho you may not have found the words you are thinking, you put across everything into a simple form for clarity and conciseness that shows us a heroic picture. You did good.
