Beach days are like Christmas morning used to be for me when I was a kid. I LOOOOOOVE them. M is always so good to take me to my favorite beach, he lets me peruse the little shops, and I get to go to really yummy food joints to eat.
These days always refresh me, and make me feel all shiny and new, though be it a little tired at the end of the day.
My favorite moment of the day was when Olive and Indy went to the edge of the ocean and played tag with the waves, while M and I sat in little "sand chairs" and soaked in the sun. When Indy was done, he came running up asked if he could be taken to the bathroom. Now, let me just say, the bathroom was way, way far away. He probably wouldn't have made it. So, M told him he could pee in the ocean. Indy had a look on his face like he was being set up. "Really?" he asked. So, he turned ran down to the edge of the waves, pulled out his "junk" and let loose. I didn't get to see his face, but I could tell, he thought this was freedom.
To pee in the ocean may not have been the "politically correct" thing to do, but it was certainly the "human" thing to do. It felt so good to just let this little boy have freedom and pee. Freedom isn't always about liberty and justice. Sometimes it's just about peeing when you need to. What a fun moment. What a fun family. What a fun day. Not one second was wasted on worry, sadness, despair, disappointment or loss. YAY!!!
