We are back home again. There is sand everywhere. I still feel the rhythm, the roar and hush of the waves. I love how you can close your eyes at the ocean and maybe an entire lifetime passes away before you come back to the moment.
It was a wonderful family getaway, one which impressed me deeply as I watched how the dynamics of our little tribe are changing. How fun it is to have older girls, how interesting and sobering, how amazing to share all this with my husband: how we look at them in wonder, frustration, amusement, gratitude, and inexpressible love.
