A photo of my little man, once a month, on the last day of each month, in 2016
Reece, the whole month of February was devoted to counting down to our trip to Mrytle Beach, and the time has finally arrived, we are here! We got up early this morning and hit the beach to watch the sunrise. Well, I watched the sunrise, and you ran up and down the beach, chasing seagulls and waves. It was a gorgeous morning, and it made me so very happy to watch you run free, and wild, laughing, and enjoying this beautiful spot. You are about the same age I was when I first started coming here with your nana and papa. Every summer we would visit this spot, your uncle and I running free and wild just as you did this morning. I have so many fond memories of my summer vacations here and I hope that you too will carry the memories of our trips to the beach with you, as you get older.
I thought I recognized that water, have a wonderful time!
ReplyDeleteMuch love.
I bet you did :) Thanks Tracey, we most certainly will. xo

DeleteHow lovely that you can share this spot with Reece. I love these moments with my kiddos as well, I only wish there were more.
ReplyDeleteAnd I love all the joy that boy is exuding, and knowing that you must be feeling it as well.
(Mattheus received his letter from Reece yesterday. He lit up with excitement, drew a picture immediately and can't wait to write back!)
It feels pretty awesome, and now that he is at the age I was at, it is so cool to take him to different spots, remembering them from my childhood.
DeleteWe are both very happy my friend, feeling content, well loved and so wonderfully supported. This trip was definitely needed for many reasons, and has helped me heal a little more. So good.
So happy to hear it arrived! Reece sent him off a postcard today too :)
Have a wonderful trip :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks Aimee!
DeleteDear Kim! Nice to hear you arrived safe! Oh that picture is so inspiring!
ReplyDeleteThank you my friend, we are here, and enjoying ourselves.
DeleteWhat a wonderful picture, he does look so free there. You've given me a terrible urge to abandon gardening plans with Maria this morning and head to the beach instead!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sally. Well, did you hit the beach?
