Reunion #Childhoodfriends

Childhood friends are, in my opinion, the best friends you can have.  ‘Best’ not in the traditional sense of ‘Best’ friend, but, ‘Best’ because they are friends who share moments of your childhood; going back to your toddler years.  The truth is  once your childhood has past no other friend can relate to your childhood experiences.   Hence, why a reunion was planned for my children and my girlfriend’s children, for they had not seen each other for many years but shared childhood memories that kept them connected.  Yes, it was a little scary to gather these now adults in one room but it turned out to be lots of fun.

Now the question is, What do you do when you see your childhood friends after many years?  Why, you pull out a family album and begin to reminiscence and talk about all the Christmas’ and family vacations you all shared.

It was interesting to see our children immediately fall back to their childhood laughter.

Yeah,  just like old times, Jeannine, Christopher, Damian and Erica got back into their lets just hang out mood. The only difference is  now we have additions to the family,  spouses and children added to the mix  

  Us parents were so proud, and pleased, to see how they’ve grown into lovely adults and caring parents.

Here they are, Erica, Damian, Jeanine and Christopher as  adults on the right and  as children on the left.

 A growing family is a blessing.  A family that grows and stays together is an extra blessing.

Oh, where did the years go?  I thought.  What rabbit hole did time fall through?

Time has no master and is never boomerangs back.

However, your childhood friends can open up that can of time by releasing those memories you all shared together.

Thanks, Joe and Joanne.

May our friendship continue with the passing of time.
