" We all battle with becoming jaded. I hope I can maintain a balance of youthfulness and responsibility in all things. Michael's tuppence hits close to home, as I save for the future but indulge myself as well."
Recently rewatched "Mary" back in November at a Sing-a-Long Mary Poppins in Chicago (and won First Prize in the adult costume competition; part of my costume was my Mary Poppins hat I got at Land back in 1970!!!). Was delighted that so many new fans really love the film!
But was really swept away by how well-crafted the film was for all ages. Those of us in our 40s may remember it from our childhood and how we loved Dick Van Dyke and the penguins, the funny laughing floating man and how the nursery cleaned itself up. We now can relate to the father in some ways, and how easy it is to lose track of that childlike wonder (although being a Disney fan, it's a little easier).
GREAT post. Thank you!
