in an effort to forget the craziness of dumping spices in a cup, unwinding a spool of thread and roll of toilet paper, knocking over a lamp and breaking it, along with screaming games of tag in the house and fights for toys -- and this is just this morning -- i decided to find a happy moment to remember.
this was one of those perfect days. mr. pike and i took the kids up to lake erie at the end of august. the day was not too hot, but warm enough with a slight breeze. the kids played in the sand and splashed in the water.
little girl and little boy were delightful. they often talk about going back to the beach, and i'm kicking myself why we didn't go up there earlier in the summer. we could have had many weekends of sand, sunshine, and joy.
now we have something to look forward to for next summer. and a perfect memory to get me through the day -- or at least until nap time.

So happy you are blogging again! And so happy to see my darling kiddos enjoying the beach. I only remember their charming activities and laugh about all the others!
being mother of young kids is not easy!! I have those days very often, hang in there. just remember they grow up fast. that's what i tell myself everyday.
