jumping for joy
On Saturday, armed with my wonderful mamma's help, I took Micah who has severe ASD to the beach for the first time in many years. This beach is at Semaphore Park and it is where I grew up, learned to swim and spent many summers. It seemed fitting that this would be the place to take Micah. He was so filled with joy that passerby's would stop and smile at him and talk to me about how happy he was. He ran through the tide pools and splashed along the shore, jumping, laughing and having the best time. He is such an active boy, it didn't surprise me that he would be running around full of energy. What did surprise me was when he sat down at the shore line and simply watched the water come in and out. So at peace and just being still in the moment. A very special outing for both of us.
