A Teacher's Reflections 
Thank you very much, Jennie. All you do is so appreciated!!
You are welcome, GP! What a terrific song!! We can never have too much music or patriotism.
Thank you for feeling that way!
You are welcome, GP.
I love GP’s posts. This is a great one.
I love them, too!!
Too late! I cried when I listened to it on GP’s site.
I’m glad! We love watching the Boston Pops annual Pops Goes the Fourth concert at the Esplanade on TV every Fourth of July. This year because of the pandemic it wasn’t live. They showed highlights of past years, AND they showed this song. Who knew Zoom could be so wonderful?
I know, particularly with music!
Yes!
Thank you for the great recommendation. A good one, love it too. Michael
