Today we went to the beach and the Oregon Coast Aquarium with Grandma Mary and nine other family members. What a busy day!
Ben's favorite part (besides lunch) was the sand on the beach. At first he refused to step on it and held his feet in the air. Then he moved on to gigantic steps. Finally he sat down threw handfuls of sand in the air. He threw sand up into the wind over and over. He found this to be hilarious. He crawled, rolled, and ran in the sand. Sand was stuck to every part of him.
At one point we noticed he was missing an 'ear'. This caused mas pandemonium for the long 2 minutes it took to back track and find it blinking away in the sand. He spent the rest of his beach time in silence.
I think this picture (thanks to Uncle Steven) sums up my little boy.
He makes a simple, silent, exploration of the world look beautiful.
Where did this amazing little creature come from?
