and they ran and ran



I'm not quite sure what was most beautiful and enduring about this moment.. was it watching my little sister, Melissa, run and play with her baby, and their pure glee as they chased and ran from the waves; or was it little miss Brooklyn, experiencing the ocean for the first time that she most likely remember, and her amazement and fearlessness of the ice cold salt water.   Or, was it the pride of the big sister that filled my soul with smiles as I watched my dear little sister, put aside her vast responsibilities, and just play.  I'm don't know.  Though I tend to think it was watching Mel play and smile and laugh.  No cares, no worries. Just being in the moment, and loving every moment of it.

I see these pictures and immediately hear the sound of the ocean. I also am sure there was a few precious giggles.

You my friend are a breath of fresh air...not I! Your words, stories and pictures tell me without a doubt that your heart is BIG and BOLD! I love this about you. You enjoy life and all it's simplicities. i truly do admire you!
