Despite feeling woozy and achy from a serious cold, I decided to follow M and SAM to the beach for some breakfast with some of SAM's teacher friends.
It was a blustery day, but that didn't stop both mom and daughter from having a blast in the sand and surf.
Margaret was excited by all the surfers, dogs and other children at the beach and had to be pulled screaming from the sand to change once she started shivering.

I left for home first in order to get out of the wind, but the hardy girls stayed on for breakfast and more playtime.
M is in her crib now, complaining about being forced to nap while her mom and I determinedly work to while away a few hours in quiet.

Not afraid of ANYTHING

oh my, Maine will be SUCH fun this summer!
Oh, how cool (literally!) to see the girls at the beach. Quite a change in attitude for M from last Chinese New Year when she first experienced a pool! Hope the MacMahan water won't be too much of a shock. Can't wait!!! Love you!
PS LOVE the sandals!!
PPS I have just blown up each of these beach photos to look at them more closely, and they are just fabulous. John, you are a gifted photographer in the way you capture expressions, and moments. Each one is worth framing. Of course, I might be a bit biased about the subject matter, but I feel the same way about all the Christmas photos of your family as well. Aren't both of our families lucky that you not only love chronicling moments, but you're so good at it?! Thank you! :-)
Wow. These photos are phenomenal! I now have the one of SAM and M standing, with feet in the water, on my desktop. They're exquisite!
