As I was putting together these Memorial Day printables, I realized I didn’t know the difference between Memorial Day and Veterans Day. It turns out that Veterans Day was established to as a way to primarily thank living military veterans. Memorial Day is a day for remembering and honoring military personnel who died in service to their country, particularly those who died in battle.

Memorial Day Poem

Red poppies are traditionally worn and given on Memorial Day. It was written in 1915 by World War I Colonel John McCrae. McCrae’s poem had a huge impact on two women, Anna E. Guerin of France and Moina Michael. Both worked to initiate the sale of artificial poppies to help orphans and others left destitute by the war.

Since the weather is so nice lately, I’m on a big get-ready-for-summer kick. You might remember me whining about the Chicago weather last winter, but this April was our warmest ever on record – I’m ready to get out on the boat!!! For our summer vacation, we are renting a lake house in western Michigan, and you can bet I’m printing out tons of stuff to take with us on the road trip!
