walking at the beach with the dogs is so great for all of us. my husband and i enjoy the beach in any weather. we have fun just being together with the dogs. daisy and fitzy are so funny together.
my husband and i are funny together too. we really do have the same whacky sense of humor.
we have fun when the kids come with us just because it's nice to get everyone together with no electronics....ipods, cell phones, computer, x-box.
we enjoy the time even though we practically have to kidnap them to get them to come with us.
sometimes we just have to insist that we all be happy, darn it.
sometimes they are happy when we force them to be.
they are happy kids...just not with us. not all of the time.
it's their job to be like that.
they are teenagers.
we tale walks at the beach on christmas day....it's like another present fo all of us.
calm after the storm.
peace.
nature.
dogs.
love.
laughter.
quiet.
time to think.
time to breathe.
time to be.
fitzy and daisy just love to be wherever they are. they live in the moment. they are happpy just to be with us, wherever we go. they love the car, the wind the air.
they take the simple pleasures of life
everyday
and share that gift with us
being with them makes us more aware of our environment
and the little life joys.
they take us with them
to places
we might not know
we might not see
we might not smell
we might not touch
we might not hear
they make us notice the crunch of a horseshoe crab shell
we can't taste it, but we know that there is something savory about it
a skate is something of a treasure
a hunk of seaweed
the sea grass has all kinds of smells for daisy and fitzy
they bring us to a peaceful place everywhere we go together.
thank you daisy and fitzy for keeping us aware and living in the moments.
