Personally, I prefer the mountains to the beach, but watching my kids at the beach was a beautiful thing. I knew they'd love it, and they really did. As a stay-at-home mom, I watch them play every day, all day long. We've gone to parks, playgrounds, museums, zoos, pools, and lakes. (Not to mention our playroom and backyard.) They have a great time at all of these places, but if they had to pick a favorite place, I'm pretty sure it would be the beach. There were no complaints, no fussy faces, no requests for anything. They just played, and played, and played some more. It was truly joyous to witness. It'd be tough to do, but they may turn me into a beach person, with all of their salty, sandy happiness.

I loved this little story. It's so nice to see a Mom who truly appreciates the moments of sweetness with her children.
