I am on the Cape with dear friends. Dear is an understatement. We have been together for 25 years, since our children were little. Now, we have grandchildren, and our adventures keep on going. I wouldn’t trade these ladies for a million dollars.
Here is an old and a new photo:
I will be away for a few days, but will catch up with my fellow bloggers soon.

About Jennie
I have been teaching preschool for over forty years. This is my passion. I believe that children have a voice, and that is the catalyst to enhance or even change the learning experience. Emergent curriculum opens young minds. It's the little things that happen in the classroom that are most important and exciting. That's what I write about.
I was a live guest on the Kelly Clarkson Show. I am highlighted in the seventh edition of Jim Trelease's million-copy bestselling book, "The Read-Aloud Handbook" because of my reading to children. My class has designed quilts that hang as permanent displays at the National Liberty Museum in Philadelphia, the Fisher House at the Boston VA Hospital, and the Massachusetts State House in Boston.

Thank you, Michael!
Have a wonderful reunion, Jennie! Take also time for some rest. Best wishes, Michael
Just got back home, Michael. It was wonderful. With old friends, we always laugh. Laugher is the best medicine. Perhaps it is old friends who are the best medicine?
Who is the guy in the new photo, Jennie? Hummmm?
Hi John. He is the son of one of the Mermatrons, my longtime group of friends. Yes, we have a name…. That photo was taken at his wedding. He was the head writer for the TV show Elementary, and now his new TV series has begun. It was fun to watch it together. Well, it was really fun to be together. You can’t have enough laughing or wine, right? 🙂
Right on the laughing. Wine might be another matter. Thanks, Jennie. 😁
😀
That’s so great, 25 years!
Thank you, Liza. We have the best time, always!
Hurrah for time on the Cape with loved ones!!!
Yes!!! Will, our kids grew up together in a pretty sophisticated children’s chorus. They were singing opera before high school. I learned so much about music during those years. The little kids would often sing Benjamin Britten songs, which became my favorite. Well, these kids are our link, and we have been fast friends ever since. The power of music, right?
enjoy every minute!
It was wonderful. Just back. Thank you, Beth!
I love this! Have a wonderful time Jennie!🤗
Thank you, Kim! Just back. It was wonderful. 🙂
Have a wonderful time!
Thank you, Carla!
Enjoy! 🙂
It was delightful. Thank you.
If you’re in Cotuit, look for my footprints in the sand…Enjoy yourself!
I wish the weather had been beach-friendly. We were in Centerville, right on the big lake, and not far from the beach, so no Cotuit this year. We always have a grand time, just like your Bar Chronicle friends do. Thank you, Steve.
Great. I need to get those guys together. I’ve spent too much time writing about ‘the frog, the hog and the dog’ and forgetting them. Sounds like you had a great time. Take care.
Yes, you do need to get your Bar Chronicle guys together! Like you, I do plenty of writing. BUT, those times with your best group of friends is powerful and uplifting, for all of you. We had a wonderful time!
Very beautiful memories
Thank you.
What fun! Enjoy your break, Jennie 😍
Just got back, and it was wonderful, as always. The rain doesn’t stop the fun and laughing! You know that with your group of friends! 🙂
Absolutely, Jennie! Glad you had a great time! 😊
😀
Nothing like getting together with longtime friends.
You bet! Our kids sang together in a sophisticated children’s chorus, and we have been fast friends ever since. Oh, the laughs and the stories!!
Have a grand time Jennie!
Thank you, FR. Just got back. It was wonderful. Rain can’t dampen all the laughing and fun we had. 🙂
Sounds wonderful. Enjoy!
It was, Norah. Thank you. All of our children, now in their 30’s and 40’s ‘get it’. They see that their parents’ group of friends are still together having a blast.
It’s a wonderful legacy.
I think so, too.

Love the old and new photo. What a great reunion! 🙂
Best wishes, Pete.
