It is alright for a child’s feet to grow into an adult’s in time. It’s inevitable. But what I was doing was letting my feet get to my head. I was forgetting that I was that same child still. Now these prints were unacceptable and I allowed them to go no further.



I kicked off my shoes and I jumped and played in the sand the whole way back to my car. Sometimes it was so soft and so deep that it came up to my knees. I fell on my butt a couple times but I acted like I meant to. It was just me and a giant sandbox. I needed that little reminder today of Juli the child.
