Memories

After dinner tonight, we headed down to the beach. I resisted the urge to take my camera. I was just going to go and enjoy family time. I have been extra cautious--keeping my camera safe from the sand. However, the sand always sneaks in.

There was a breeze on the beach ,which made the air a little chilly, but the water was surprisingly warm. I spent the majority of the time chasing the older kids through the waves. The sun was setting and gave a golden orange glow on our faces. Our shadows followed us while reflecting off the water. Maggie and I raced back and forth forever, in calf deep water. Playing tag and jumping over crashing waves.

So many times I wished I had brought my camera. It was an awesome moment, one that I will never forget. Then I thought to myself, that it would never have happened had I brought my camera. I would have been too preoccupied and worried.

This was much needed quality time with my Mags.
