The twins have never been to the beach! ....and the “triplet” can’t really remember it either so he was right there with them ! (this is my favorite picture of my 3 little bumps on a log “seeing the OCAEN for the first time )
With each of the kids i have loved teaching them……well anything!!! …….I love literally opening a new blank page in their brains and drawing a picture on it of the meaning for that word, concept, or object….for the first time!!!-- to stay there forever more!
TODAY ~ it was how to say “Ocean”
and that, the “wind” is what is blowing your hair all around …..as for the ”sand” well…..they didn’t like the feeling of sand !!…in their shoes…. or under their feet …but no we don’t wear our shoes in the ocean… and. yes if you want to go and see the water you have to walk on the sand ! ….and no you cannot stand on the very tippy end of the picnic blanket and yell in unison “daaaaaadddd we meed you “ ( he will make you walk on the sand too :) and oh yes –remember to dump the bucket full of water away from you- not all over your tummy…and the “waves” from the ocean will make you sink into the sand… but oh! don’t cry there are your toes again !
We are still learning to hold our brothers hands when walking down a pathway …(so nobody is tempted to run ahead) and no you cannot put your hand onto your pocket instead –”i see you trying to be sneaky”!!…..”yes mommmy” ..lol --- and not every skinny tall man is your daddy…shhhhh! no that’s not him either!…shhhh!
Now of course” being the good parents we are” the pictures stopped a soon as we got close to the water and we were all hands on deck!
I feel like we have reached another milestone-we allllll went to the beach today !!! YEAH!
