Today i took the girls (DD5 and DH2B's DD12) to the beach. It was amazing. I was drugged enough to be able to make it through the day but not so drugged that I coulnd't drive. I will say I am exhausted and will be paying for it for 2 days.

BUT, as I was sitting in my chair with my toes in the water listening to the kids laughing and watching the wind dancing across the water... I have never felt more peaceful. It was an amazing day, and I bonded with the oldest. I was mad her dad didn't want to come with us but it turned out to be a wonderful time with just the girls.
