Phoebe and the Pelican

I pointed out a pelican to Phoebe. He was resting on a rock, 20 feet or so out in the water. "I want to pet him," she said and told me to go across the water so we could find him.

Take my shoes off!

When we arrived in La Jolla today, we took a walk down the street toward the beach. At the first break in the rail between the sidewalk and the shore, Phoebe took off across the rocks toward the sand. Then she sat down, took off her shoes and socks, and announced, "I want to go in the ocean!"

Child of my heart, you fill me up. What a joy.
