Sometimes, glimmers of personality flash so fast but so strong, it’s undeniable. When she was younger, she insisted on building a sand castle as the tide was rolling in around her; sure she could find a way to make it stand. Now, almost 4 years later, she showed that same determination when faced with a massive boulder that she was convinced she could scale, running full speed straight at its face. And her little brother, who was still taking naps last I saw him, is showing similar tenacity in spirit and curious nature, skipping over the rocks on the pier with ease and fearlessness.
What a joy to be able to see you all again, Amy and Aaron! Your smiles in the midst of the wild year we’ve had bring me a slice of peace.
