It is easy to see the beauty all around you when you start off your day on the right foot. This morning, after dropping Matthew off at preschool, I was headed to the grocery store. I was over in Encinitas near the local Sprout's--I was also fairly close to the ocean. Well, not really, I couldn't see it from where I was, but it called to me. It said something like, "you can grocery shop later...come, walk along the 101...I promise you'll be glad you did...the dolphins are out playing, maybe you'll see one (I did)...It's beautiful out today..." CRAZY. The next thing I knew, I had passed the store parking lot and was pulling into the lot at Swami's. What a perfect way to begin my day. I promise to always listen when the ocean speaks to me.
Later, at home after my lovely three mile walk along the coast, I noticed many other beautiful things. Like this little guy. He's almost four months old now and is the sweetest baby we could have hoped for.
And..I can't decide whether I like the pink bougainvillea that are finally growning on our hill more, or if I like the sight of a chocolate covered cinamon bear with his head bitten off better . They are both beautiful, if you ask me.
I love seeing this guy eat a good lunch, even if he had a few gummy worms on his plate next to his sandwich. He usually eats like a bird.
And finally for this Ode to Tuesday post, I love the color of this freshly squeezed, and already completely consumed, orange juice. Just beautiful, don't you think? Happy Tuesday.
