Why are we always so desperate to ‘grow up’? Life does that to you, makes you want to sample the green grass on the other side of the fence. It makes you wish away and waste your youth on yearnings for adulthood. When you get there you look back longingly at the pastures you left behind realising maybe they were the greenest after all.
Today there was no grass just sand, miles of beautiful golden sand and sunshine – actual sunshine on the north coast! You gleefully stripped down to bareness to run through the waves. Splashing and smiling, your cup running over. What a simple, special pleasure to watch my healthy, strong and wondrous little boy. With wind in our hair and sun on our backs, I thought, I never want to be anywhere but here, in this moment forever.
