This past March when COVID created havoc and uncertainty in our society I was able to take long walks on the beach with my wife, kids and dogs.
Having the ability to decompress and spend quality time with Hillary, Lyvia, Ava, Jewel and Ruby was amazing. Our conversations about the pandemic, schools closing, staying socially distant, people getting sick and dying, etc. were difficult but extremely important. I could tell my daughters were confused and at times showed stress and anxiety but the walks on the beach helped them feel relaxed, breath and feel free. When I reflect and think about these walks I am grateful for these times with my family regardless of the circumstances.
