Rowan’s Retelling of Remembrance Day

Today seems like an appropriate day to share with you what Rowan knows about Remembrance Day. The information is iffy, but the blog post will be short and sweet, just like him.

A few years ago, back in the olden days, there was a war. All the daddies and grandpas had to go, even if they didn’t want to. Lots of big brothers, too. Some of them even died. It was so sad. They had to have guns, and they didn’t want to use guns. They wanted to use their swords instead. They usually used swords. But they had to use guns this time. (Friends*) daddy died in the war… Maybe it was her grandpa… Or someone else. But it was so sad, mommy.

I say again, details are iffy, but I really liked the bit about the swords, haha! Perhaps he’s picturing a more “Lord of the Rings” style war.

Kids are cute. That’s really the moral of this story. Good try, Ro!
