My Solace
In my single days I frequented the beach on a very regular basis. Every brown spot on my face is a testament to that. I would go when I was happy or sad. If the sun was out, or not. To praise the sun or walk in the moonlight. The beach is where I found comfort and peace. I have never been afraid of the ocean. Even when caught in the "washing machine" of the waves I was never afraid. I love it!!Living by the beach again is awesome. I never realized how much I missed it. A few months ago, Grady and I braved the beach...just the two of us. I was nervous how it was gonna go. I didn't know if Grady would like it. Lucky for me, he played for maybe 10 mins and then decided it was time to have a bottle and go to sleep. He slept for 2 hours under the umbrella!!! I was in heaven. I got to sit in my chair, look out at the ocean, sip my Coke, read and stare at my sleeping baby. It was then that I realized how much I missed my beach, how very happy I am and how all my dreams came true.

beautiful post, my friend...
I'm happy to have you back at the beach!! Grady seems thrilled too! Ocean + Diet Coke (coke for you)=heaven!
beautifully put. We may not have much in common, but this is one of the few. Remember when we got caught out in the rip current in Hawaii and just took turns swimming and pulling the boogie board? We weren't even freaked out...didn't even know we were in danger.
I think my dream is finally coming true in a couple of weeks.
Lucky for you... Holly one day you'll wake up and not be timid about going anywhere or doing anything with the little man. He's a cutie pie!
