The Hubster and I recently traveled from eastern Washington state, where we live, to western Washington state, where our son and his family live.
It was so good to see them!
We are super proud grandparents to have had the opportunity to attend our granddaughter’s high school graduation and our grandson’s college graduation! So fun!
We had another granddaughter graduate from high school as well. She lives in North Carolina, and we were privileged to watch her graduate from a live video presentation!
The family took us to Bolstad Ocean Beach where we listened to the ocean roar, chased seagulls, and simply enjoyed being there.
So refreshing!
“At the beach, life is different. Time doesn’t move hour to hour, but mood to moment. We live by the currents, plan by the tides, and follow the sun.” – Sandy Gingras
While I was visiting the family, my youngest sister’s light went out. Not unexpected, she had been ill a very long time, but heartbreaking nonetheless.
Her shining eyes, robust laughter, and light will be forever in my heart!
