A Trip to the Seashore

One of the great things about kids is their never ending pursuit of discovery. God's creation has many opportunities for helping to

satiate the seemingly endless need to discover. I hope I never tire of hearing "Mommy look what I found" as they come running to show me their latest treasure. I hope that I can cultivate a love for the treasures that are contained in Scripture as well as those that can be found in the natural world.

Here I am with my younger brother as we pose in front of the lighthouse. It was such a blessing to be able to spend some time with him and the kids at the beach. Since they seldom get to see him, they were very eager to have some playtime with Uncle Rusty.

I have photographed one of the day's discoveries here and placed it in our bucket. Yes, that is a jellyfish floating in the water. One of two we caught this day and brought back to Grandpa's house with us.

Here is Lil' Liss playing with Grandma along the shoreline.

Not many things in life are as fun as a trip to the beach. While visiting my folks in Florida, we were able to take advantage of their close proximity to the ocean and visit the island of Boca Grande, just about 4 miles away. Normally I am more of a pool Mom than a salt-water Mom but sometimes it feels good to say "yes".

In constant pursuit...
