Being at the beach this year has been perfect. C is finally OK enough with the water to want to play in the waves, dig for seashells, and hang out on the beach. R is more daring, so has had no qualms about the beach or water, which is fantastic. His favorite word is ‘shovel” and he carries it around like a blankie right now.

We are enjoying catching up with family. Have had some really really good news and the kids are getting along fine. We are spending tons of time at the beach, saw fireworks from the sand, sat in warm ocean breezes.

So far a fine trip is being had by all!
