A Sunday afternoon drive brought us to the breezy shore of the Gulf of Mexico today.  It was fun to eat our fish lunch in an outdoor restaurant overlooking the beach.  Out of the corner of my eye as I ate, I saw a sandy blonde head longingly watch the shoreline while clutching her bathing suit.  I smiled knowing her sweet little toes ached to feel the warm sand between them.  As sunset approached in a clear sky,  Mommy treasured the moments watching her favorite people-- hand in hand, wading, laughing, splashing, running from crabs.  My face was warmed by the sun but my heart with the sound of Baby squealing with delight.  She looked at me with wonder while her little chubby fists clutched the sugary white sand for the first time and she was cooled by the stinging salty waves.  My mind was full as we listened to two distinct snores while driving home in the darkness.  Our day is done, but my memory is forever...
