We learned that one week at the beach is NOT enough! We all missed home, but we left the ocean behind with sadden hearts. Being by the sea completely felt like the most natural thing, and no one wanted to leave that feeling behind.
If I ever win the lottery or get rich through some amazing book deal, I know we will sell our current home in an instant and move somewhere south and closer to the beach. A part of our hearts were left on that beautiful SC beach, and we returned with plenty of sand in our luggage--and gorgeous memories to hold us over until we can visit the sea once again.
I took lots of photographs of our vacation, and we plan to have a photo book created from over favorite snapshots. We even collected seashells, other beach trinkets, and some sand so we can create a beach jar. We will cherish this vacation forever, and perhaps my son and daughter will pass on some of the stories from our beach adventure on to their own children someday. I live for moments like these--so special, so breathtaking, and so miraculous. I won't ever forget to savor every single second!
