My beach baby

One of my favorite places in the world is the beach.  We are so lucky to be able to live just a few blocks away, in walking distance.  At half tide, our beach has tidal pools, perfect for a 7 month old to splash about in.  I just love this photo that my mom took.  It's mid-splash and Zane has learned quickly to close his eyes and mouth.  I am still so amazed that this beautiful child is in our lives - heck, IS our life - and playing in the same tidal pools that I played in at his age.  He brings so much joy to the smallest discoveries.

On another note, Happy Memorial Day.  I am so thankful to the men and women that have ever worn a uniform in the service to our country.  I am so thankful for the freedoms that my family and I enjoy.  And of course thank you to all the families that also sacrifice for their loved ones' service.
