Old Friends Reunited
I was ecstatic to be able to spend a short evening with these ladies recently. There’s something very unique and wonderful about being with people you have known for a long time!!
Jamie & Becky are both friends that I became tight with in adolescence, & have stayed in touch with ever since. We’re all the exact same age, just a few days apart! Becky lives just up north so I get to see her occasionally, but Jamie lives in Boston, so we don’t hang out as much! Jamie & I have been close friends for about 18 years, and my teen years would have been a lot less exciting without her.
Now, we have 10 kids between us… Almost 11 kids, because Becky is pregnant with her #5!!!
Here are a few of the kiddos. Chase & Bryson especially get along amazingly & always pick up right where they left off!
Brynne is 10 months older than Charlotte, & little Eliza’s birthday is 6.5 months after Charlotte’s. Amazing difference in size!
Here are the Wonder Dads, Pace & Dan, with their cute baby girls, Caroline & Emmeline (about 6 months apart).
I love this guy!!
I had to get a few pictures with baby Emme Joy, because her middle name is my first name. (It was windy, I couldn’t keep that hair out of my face!). I loved holding that calm, delightful, soft little chubster.
Greetings! My name is Caroline. Here I sit upon my little throne, happy & content as an infant can be!
Hark! What is this? ‘Tis my elder sister, come to greet me & dote on me.
Yes, yes, the feelings are mutual…. Wait, what is this?
Hey!! That’s MY BINKY!
You shall return it to me this instant!
MUST… HAVE… IT.
UGH. Your rudeness has disgusted me & dampened my spirits. Depart at once.
I have experienced the unfairness of life this day, and now I shall cry.
