sunday night: 3 snapshots of the weekend

this guy is a treasure.
today was his first time out in the water on his own surfboard.
he's had it since he turned five (over a year ago) but has been so freaked out of the water that he couldn't use it.
well...that says it all.
triumph.
and finally joining the "big kids" who float 15 feet out (away from the little guys)...priceless.

(it is hard for me to look at these photos without tearing up)

  7. My kids would never ever do this on their own. Not even if I bribed them. Gotta admit your pics make me kind of jealous :) Love them.
