Tears of Joy

Today I cried tears of joy! I haven't done that in a long time, but I couldn't help it. I sat in my beach chair and put Zoe to sleep with the sound of the waves and the seagulls. I watched as Jeff was out in the water jumping waves with Mason and Cooper and took turns helping them with the boogie board. Jaxon was with our new friends Beverly and Erin (they are from San Antonio)-they were busy teaching him how to catch "little white wiggly fishes". I couldn't help but stop, absorb, and thank God for the amazing moments in life!!!!

Some funny statements of the day:

Cooper: Dad, I was born to do this that is why I am so good at it

(this was after Jeff went to retrieve him on the boogie board because it was time for lunch)

Cooper: Dad are we in Miami?

(this was after Jeff went to retrieve him on the boogie board "again" - he had gone way down the beach without Jeff seeing him- pretty big undertow today)

Cooper: I read a real book and it said there were no beaches in Texas.

Me: Jaxon what color were the fishes that you played with today

Jaxon: Dey were white before dey were dead and den dey were bwown. De gugulls don't wike dem when dey are bwown.

(trasnslation: they were white before they were dead and then they were brown. The seagulls don't like them when they are brown. )

I will do my best to get some pics up when we get back but I am really bad at that part of the blog thing. Suffice it to say- if this is what Heaven is like I really want to be a part of it!!!!!!
