Today we took a family trip to the beach. It was a beautiful morning, and so your dad and I decided it would be fun to take advantage of the warm weather. Sullivan was fortunate enough to come with us and he loved playing fetch while you searched the sand for seashells. Your daddy always says that you are a very accepting little lady because you always choose the shells that are ugly and imperfect, almost like you feel sorry for them. I hope that this is a sign of compassion and empathy, but think that the more likely explanation is that the shells you choose tend to be bigger and look more interesting in terms of shape and texture!
You get so excited and thrilled every time we take you to the beach, so we have decided to try to make it there at least once a weekend in hopes of teaching you to appreciate the beauty and power of the sea. We hope that you will embrace the beach/ocean/sand/nature as a meaningful and important aspect of your life, and come to recognize how it can benefit you in so many ways.
