All 6 Happily Ever After...

The other day as I was walking around on the beach while the kids played nearby, I saw these adorable little footprints. And for a moment thought, 'how cute! little feet!'...



and, it dawned on me, they belonged to really cute little feet that I've kissed many times over.



So, I grabbed my camera and started snapping away realizing that those footprints wouldn't stay tiny for long.

Whearas last year, Ariana took off down this beach running around with out a care- this year, it took her a couple days to gain the courage to place her toes in the sand and, finally, be free enough to run and play.

She's still not brave enough to venture into the water. So, she just watches from afar. But I consider that a very good thing.



Nevertheless, when the bigger kids are out of the water and building sand castles, she has plenty of company...

I am pretty sure there is nothing these kids would rather be doing than playing in the sand.

... unless it's jumping the pool!
