(Day118) lunch date with Daddy

Today we decided to do something different and headed down to the beach side to have lunch with Daddy during his work lunch break. Sometimes we forget that we live only a 10 minute drive from the beach. Maybe because it isn't the perfect post card beach that you see in magazines, with pristine white sands and clear water, but today the beach was breathtakingly beautiful anyway. The sky was such an amazing color of blue, the water was still and alluring ( it was so tempting to jump in, but it is stinger season) and there were lots of people stopped there in uniforms, obviously with the same idea that we had! It was so lovely getting to spend even half an hour with Daddy eating fish and chips with the waves breaking next to us - and in the middle of the week! I am looking for many more days like this over the next two weeks, when your brother and sisters have time off school and we can all meet with Daddy for lunch dates! After spending so many years studying and working 30 - 80 hours a week, I am just loving being able to be a stay at home mum, for however long I am able to :-)
