It was a beautiful afternoon at the beach.
We walked, explored, dipped and smiled.
We looked up and down. We giggled, laughed and skipped as we moved along the rocks and sand.
At some point I decided to write my one little word for 2014 in the sand. Sarah then wanted to write her word too. Her word?? I didn't even know she had a word. But she did. In fact she has two.
Courage and faith.
Timothy heard us talking and saw us writing and decided he too wanted a word or two. He choose embrace and justice. We had fun writing our words in the sand and decided to add a few more.
We discussed our words and what they meant to us. It was beautiful.
The kids wanted to take some photos too. I am so glad I said yes.
They certainly know how to see beauty. The way they see and notice the world around them is inspiring. I sat and watched them roaming the beach with a camera and an open, in the moment, heart.

We spent almost 2 hours down at the beach. It was special for so many reasons and in so many ways.
I will treasure this afternoon in my heart. It brought a joy that I haven't experienced in recent days and this was comforting for the soul. It brought inspiration and encouragement and of course it brought the three of us together and connected us in a way that nature does so wonderfully well.
