the beach....



... sweet memories float across my mind and leave me feeling very melancholy as i think about our 2 days getting away from the routine of life.
  • running on the beach (and i so needed water well before i got back - thoughts of debra race through my mind and her swamp rabbit run!)
  • Life Cookies for that much needed afternoon snack - thank you Ramona!
  • the water was not very refreshing - it was so warm, still we frolicked like kids and laughed, letting the water wash over us in waves of warmth
  • teaching jerry how to float made us laugh so hard. he is like a lead weight!
  • i was able to only read 1 more chapter in my book that i was determined to finish this trip before needing a nap - i am hopeless! :-)
  • i am not sure exactly why - but lauren doing the side stroke in the ocean just made me laugh
  • there was a sweet moment in the ocean for some much needed "girl talk" - oh how i love lauren and the uniqueness of our friendship. God was so good to gift her to me.
  • dinner downtown was good - getting there was a tadbit stressful without a map.
  • excellent wine with my steak salad with a lovely "cherry" finish
  • and let the record reflect that very fact that kc had a kiddie cup of chocolate peanut butter swirl ice cream from ben and jerrys! :-)
  • bedtime kisses mixed in with some bedtime talk - jer does so well with us girls!
  • jer served us coffee this morning and he now knows we prefer caffeine not decaf in the morning!

Girl talk soothes the fears and tempers jealousy. I love that we can talk and share and be real with each other.....Loving each other well. I love you dear friend.
