Trepidation At The Beach

235_3593beacheste.jpg

The unusual rolling swells made for some nice wave action at Carkeek Park the other day. Estella ran back and forth tempting the water and running from it with giggles and laughter. She got really sandy.

She just woke up with some light crying. I went in to her room after a couple minutes, noting it wasn't going to resolve itself, and she says, "Water." So we go into the kitchen, her head nestled on my shoulder. She then says, "I want milk." So I pour her a bit of milk and she drinks it down. I then give her some water and she drinks that down. I take the glass and she nestles back into my shoulder.

On our way back to bed she notices mama sleeping as we walk by the bedroom. She says, "I wa' kiss mama." I let her down to kiss mama's cheek and then take her back into her room and lay her down in her bed and she nestles into the covers and pillow.
