"Mum, can you take me to the beach tomorrow".
Kirrily has been asking me for weeks, over and over and over again to take her to the beach. So we went to Big W and splurged on the most expensive bucket and spade (well the lot cost about $4 so not a huge splurge). She picked the blue bucket and the light blue spade and carried it everywhere through the shops. When we got home the "mmaaaaaaaaaaaaaaam, can you take me to the beach tomorrow" kept going and going again.
We crumbled yesterday. The weather was only 23 but with a little cloud cover we put on her "Santa's" pink beach shoes and took the bucket and spade to Happy Valley.
She shells were fantastic and even lots of little bits of coral were along the beach. We were collecting for about an hour, the bucket was filling fast before we finally dragged her away. Kirrily had a fantastic time and Hayley didn't miss out either. She was in the sling on the front of david laughing and squeeling in delight and excitement watching kirrily. Or was she just trying to tell me i'm mad for going in the water up to my knees. I would have gone further but i didn't take my swimmers. The water temp is a cool 20deg which isn't too bad for winter.
Here she is:
