Little Friend



Yesterday I was telling my mom it'd be fun if we met other people while we we're at the beach. I mean, it's kinda funny if you think about it. You're on a beach in close proximity of basically the same people every day while you're at the beach. Anyways, as it turns out, today I made a new friend! :).

I was digging a hole with my little brother near the edge the water. The tide was coming in, so so hole kept filling up with water. After a bit, I noticed a little girl eying us. She kept coming closer and looking at us. So, I asked her if she wanted to dig with us. She said yes. Her bathing suit was mostly pink and she was carrying a neon green sand shovel. She told us her name and that she was five.

When she told me how old she was I thought of how she would've been the right age to come to Princess Camp :). But I don't even think she lived in the United States. At first I thought she had mistaken different states for different countries. But then, I think I started to hear a bit of a... British accent, maybe? Her little brother, who was three, came over and started digging with our bigger shovel, while the little girl and I drew caterpillars and sea creatures in the sand. We talked about The Sound of Music, iCarly, and our families, among other subjects! It was lots of fun :). Eventually their dad came and told them they were leaving shortly. Hopefully I'll see them again tomorrow! :)

    just fyi.....no pressure.... but the world (well at least I) is breathlessly awaiting the release of the gazillion photos that we know you're taking at the beach :) many people haven't been sleeping, in anticipation.
