Beach No More
I must say I am going to miss my sandy backyard and playing with the boys in it. We don’t have a lot of neighbors and have been spoiled with the big yard. I don’t think I knew how relaxing and fun it could be outside flying a kite for the kids until we did it. We did have a few hiccups, like WC lost control of the kite. It actually went pretty far before getting caught on something and DP managed to untangle it for us. Then we lost another one on the roof, which came down the next day. All in all though, it has been really nice playing at our private little beach. I must say I won’t miss the mess it brings and the constant baby powder and showers required to remove the sand or the constant dumping sand out of shoes. We will though begin a new journey with a covered & screened in back porch where they can play even in the rain. We will have an Orange tree and a Tangerine tree that we can pull the fruit off. I am looking forward to that since I love Tangerine’s and so does Giggles. We will have less room and a few other trees but we will be able to walk to the lake. I think we will be having little picnics and fishing at the lake a lot. WC wants a Rocket fishing pole so much and my mother bought him one. The only catch is he has to learn to write his name. He is getting there little by little and is writing some numbers on his own. I think it’s only a matter of time and he will be out there shooting the rocket fishing pole into the water and I just pray this time we don’t lose it in the lake like before. It would make for a long walk home. The stories we could tell though may be worth it in the end. After all if we don’t have a few hiccups along the way are we really enjoying life?
