Quote of the Day © BrummetMedia.ca "Across the range of diverse experiences and traditions  that have been written into our Nation's story,  family has remained a steadfast and common foundation.  Every day, families offer comfort and support to one another  with enduring and unconditional love  and they contribute to their communities and our country.  During National Family Week, we uplift and honor the families that  give so much to forge a brighter future for themselves and for  America.... As we reminisce on warm memories and share in the joy and love family can provide, let us also pledge to lift up our  loved ones and recommit to the family bonds that have  strengthened the fabric of our Nation".  ~ Barack Obama, 2015 November 23rd, quoted from The White House Office of the Press Secretary ~~   Visit the Brummet's @: http://BrummetMedia.ca ~~
