It wasn't very crowded that day. You wiggled your toes in the sand, looking down at your feet. SPF 60 sunscreen streaked your face and you squinted your eyes in the bright March sun. The wind was whipping around your small frame and you were delighted to feel its magic. What is wind? Where does it come from? Why can't I see it?
Look, Mom! An airplane!
You chased the airplane all along the beach. I ran after you with a goofy smile on my face and I've never been happier than I was in that fleeting moment. I caught up to you, scooped you in my arms, and kissed the salt water off your face. We walked back hand in hand until you broke free to chase another flying object- a kite this time.
Watching you learn and play and explore is my very favorite pastime. I have a beautiful life here at home with you and your brother. I want to gather up those few minutes we had alone together at the beach and put them in my pocket.
Love you forever,
Mama
