And so it goes



Headed back to the family homestead today to deal with more and then more. Bleah. At least we had fun while it lasted.

Yesterday, Amos stomped on the water, tiptoed through the little waves, and ate sand. That last one was not condoned by his mother. I showed him how to operate his little shovel and bucket, but every once in awhile the temptation was too great. The sand was meant to be nibbled.

I've determined that in some distant future, Phil and I should come back down to Rockport to let our wee babe run wild across the beach. Amos loved the bay so much that when we returned after our long day of walking and beaching, he looked up to me several times with an expression of wonderment that said, "Did we REALLY just DO that?!" My wee man is a lover of the sea.

Spring is just around the corner, my friends. Hope springs eternal. Or something.



5 beautiful people muttered something back:

Now that Spring is springing here in the high country, he can get out and enjoy some of the sites around these parts, too. Besides, what with global warming and all, we'll have beach front property by the time he's old enough to really enjoy it.

Sounds like Amos is having a good time, anyway. Hang in there, kid.

Glad you and Amos were able to have a bit of fun. Spring may be on the way, but the snow is still present. Aa beach sounds rather nice right now.

Well, I have been not blogging much lately, but I see you are still in TX. I do hope you get to come home soon!!

There is just something about babies and the ocean, its magical.
