Footprints in the Sand

We walked along the beach, smiling and laughing. The sun was fading; we had a good day, good company and lots of fun. The day was done. I looked back as we walked to find a treasure left behind, a moment in time that had not been washed away or forgotten-our footprints.

Three sets in the sand.

Three moments in time captured.

A happy moment for a fun loving 4 year old.
A peaceful moment for a happy and content women.

And a quiet moment for a man who got to spend the day with his family.

Footprints belonging to a family who created a memory on that gorgeous and peaceful day.

Finding Balance + Being Present

Today is the last day of school for my boys and it feels bittersweet. It has been a great year and although I do know all good things must come to an end, I guess a part of me doesn’t want to fully recognize that they are growing up and getting bigger. It’s all going by too fast. I am trying to hold on so tight to this time together because I want to always remember the pure joy I feel. I have written so often how important it is for me to “be present” because I know from the personal experience of loss that these small moments of time are such a gift.
