The Falmouth High School Junior-Senior Prom was tonight. Jonah and his good friend Kaiden decided to go together. I think they are still afraid of girls! So Kaiden’s mom brought Kaiden to Heather and Jed’s so we could get photos.
Then we all went to Falmouth Harbor for more photos. It looked like all of the kids and parents, and grandparents showed up at the harbor. It was quite a group. It was super windy, but at least the rain held off. Group pictures were taken with soccer team friends, jazz band friends, and playmates from childhood. When Heather and Jed lived in East Falmouth, they lived next door to the Keefe’s who had two children, Molly and Joey. Molly is in Jonah’s class and she and Kaiden both sail in the summers at Waquoit Yacht Club. Lilly, who always took summer swim lessons at Menauhant Beach with Jonah and Molly was there as well. Taking photos of that foursome was a bit emotional for me. As I was framing the photo, memories of all the years of fun with them flew through my mind. But in the frame of a phot, I could see plainly that those frolicking, crazy little kids are all grown up. And it happened in what seemed like just a blink of an eye.
