I can remember the first day of preschool for my son and daughter. It would be the first time that I wasn’t with them. I waited outside in the schoolyard while holding my breath. The school doors flew open and the little ones came filtering out with looks of delight and exclamations of joy. And, then, my little ones came through the door and when our eyes met, oh the excitement on their faces was permanently captured in my mind! They ran to me, we hugged and kissed, then they excitedly told me about their day. I will keep that moment in my heart forever!
Susi, how wonderful! The surprise and embrace you both shared must have been long, tight and so loving. Thank you for that window into your "Reunion Bliss."
I can still see my children’s faces when they would spot me amongst the other parents picking their children up after preschool. Such pure happiness and love. (For me, too!) And I can still remember each of them arriving home on their first college break. I couldn’t wait to see them and when I finally did I felt such tremendous happiness and love. Thank you for this wonderful newsletter, Mary! 💙

Awwwww...little legs, big smiles and tons of love. Thank you, Jocelind, for this beautiful memory.
One of the most joyous reunions I had was last year - my daughter came home a day early from college to surprise me. It was the best! ❤️

Susan, I love this so much. Yes! When they spot you amongst all the other faces...it's such love, isn't it?
"Good love sticks."
It sure does, Mary. What a beautiful post - thank you. ☺️
Thank you, Rebecca. I love to share joy with others (well, sometimes I complain here too. ha/ha)
That’s so sweet.
Love that photo of my little sis and her youngest. It really captures the love, doesn't it?
This is such a sweet reminder of what's most important in life!
Thank you, Wendy. It is such a gift to be a part of the reunion of young children with their loved ones.
