Simplicity: And as we spent those last few moments of summer, looking out at the blending of sea and sky, I realized it was a color I knew very well. The softly faded, essential blue of a well worn pair of pants ... my favorite pair of soft, baggy jeans.
At first glance, it was simply a mess. On second thought, it was beautiful. I don't typically love chalk spilled all over the patio, but it had kept my son occupied for over an hour. It's funny how much we spend on complicated toys and video games to keep them entertained, when sometimes all they really need is the inexpensive package of chalk. Simple.
