Water Baby

We had a nice day today. I had class this morning and during a break between sessions, I made a visit to the men's room. As I came out of the restroom, I just happened to run into Mom and Caleb wandering around the hotel, killing time. Of all the places in the hotel we each of could have been, it was pretty amazing that we end up in that same spot at the same moment. It was nice so see them so I could kiss Mom and snuggle with Caleb a minute before going back to the letures. Seeing them at that time helped me get through the rest of the morning.

After I returned to the room at the end of the conference, we went out to lunch and debated what to do the rest of the day. We finally decided to spend some time down at the hotel pool where we went for a swim...all three of us. Caleb got in the pool with me and stayed in for quite some time. He really seemed to enjoy it. We hung out in the loungers next to the pool util we got caught in an afternoon downpour which came up on us with little warning. We had all dried off from the pool and we were soaked from the rain by the time we got back in the building. We came back to the room and leisurely cleaned up. Caleb harldy said a word throughout the entire ordeal.

We headed out for dinner and then rushe over to the beach to catch the sunset. We got to the beach just before the sun was about to drop below the horizon. They sky was a beautiful combination of pink, blue and purple. We watched a pod of dolphins playing in the water just off the shore. While we stood at the edge of the water taking it all in, we held Caleb's feet down in the surf as the waves moved back and forth across the sand. Again, Caleb did not protest and seemed to be pleased with the experience. After soaking in as much peace and quiet as we could, we returned to the hotel to pack and get read to go so we can leave first thing tomorrow morning.

Today was a pretty long day for the adults, much less Caleb. As we were settliing in for the night, Mom put Caleb in his pajamas and fed him so that he could go to bed. While he was eating, I took a picture of the sweet feet that got into so much water today. I am looking forward to many more sweet days like today.
