Leaping off into the next place





There isn't time to write a proper entry tonight, but we've just returned from one of those blissful, i- can't- believe -this- is- my- actual -life evenings. Melissa and her friend K walked up the beach with their beautiful daughters. Michael and I walked down the beach with our dog and kids (Rob was helping out at the new wood-fired pizza place in the village). We met at the midpoint between our two houses and sat on the beach and ate fresh strawberries and drank champagne while the four kids ran and played and finally took turns jumping off the sea wall and into the soft sand. It was too beautiful not to share.

There are many leaping off moments to talk about in the next couple of days, but tonight, just take the bliss of a bunch of kids holding hands and leaping into their summer holidays.

Fab-u-lous!! Well I'm grinning from head to toe with the utter joy here. And tingling with curiosity about these other jumping off points you mention. What next!!

Seasons Greetings to you, your dear family and your loving friends old and new!
