Beach Bum

There is an old Welsh proverb "Perfect love sometimes does not come until the first grandchild".
I so thought I loved my own child more than anyone in this world (other than my spouse). You think there is no more room in your heart. You also recall how exhausted you were with your own child and you think twenty-five years later you would never have the energy to keep up with a baby.
Then you get a second wind and it is even better than the first wind. Your spirit is renewed and you can crawl all over the sand, even at age forty-seven, to chase and photograph this beautiful new little creature.

True love can be found, just by simply crawling around....
