Janie and Alice went to the beach this morning and Janie started crying from the moment we opened the car door. Oh well, so much for forward progress.
She clung tightly to me for the first 20 minutes while she cried and pointed away from the ocean. When I put her down, she ran as fast as she could back to me.
Eventually, she was able to sit calmly on the blanket and play in the sand for a bit.
She even put her sunglasses and cautiously watched the waves go back and forth.
