My toes were firmly planted in the sand. I love the sand…like a million small pebbles hugging my toes, holding me up against the strong current and the waves that create a dangerous shore break.
The sky holds up the sun and I love that part of the beach too. Kids are running in and out of the ocean. I’m not sure if it’s the ocean chasing the kids or the kids chasing the ocean as the back and forth game goes on and on.
But this is a day to write a short message to the man who completed my life. We were married on this day.
His spirit soars in this ocean.
I don’t need a pen or paper, or fancy anniversary card…not any more….I simply write my message in the sand.
The ocean roars in and the waves wash over the words…they disappear with the tide.
Message delivered.

Let the warmth of the sun soaking into your skin be Leroys hug to you. Happy anniversary.

Laurie, My thoughts are with you as you move through a week filled with memories. I’m glad you are at the beach…soaking the sun, toes in sand and waves coming and going..so peaceful. We all owe you and Leroy so much for bringing us together and seeing us through pretty rough times. I hope we have returned the favor.
