at the beach

written by Jana August 24, 2010

girls at the beach, originally uploaded by pilgrimgirl.

Our neighbor took this gorgeous picture of our daughters at the beach. I’m posting it today because my hands are exhausted from a full day of typing and my head is overwhelmed at the way my “little ones” are growing up so quickly.

At Chapman all of the freshmen are arriving this week for Orientation. They are wandering all around the campus with their parents in tow. It won’t be so very long before that is me, launching my kids into the next phase of their lives…

I came to this blog through my friend Tiffany, found your post on gender very intriguing, and then saw this photo. My oldest son is a senior this year, and I'm really feeling it too. I then read your description, and felt a sisterly bond, when I clicked on Hippie Quaker, it gave me the inspiration (which has been a tad difficult this week) for my own posts, so thank you.

About Me

About Me

Hi there friend, and welcome to my blog. I started writing on the internet two decades ago. Since then I've started and finished a PhD program, left the Mormon church and became a Quaker, got divorced, remarried, found full-time work in academia, took up rock climbing and outrigger canoeing, and traveled across the globe (China! Belgium! Italy! Chicago! Montana! Portland! Gettysburg! and oh-so-many points in-between). This blog is eclectic and random--it has poetry and cooking and books. And cats. And flowers. And the ocean (my ocean). But in that sense it's a good reflection of me and my wide-ranging, far-reaching, magpie curiosity.
