Aquaman

We've had a breakthrough of sorts the last couple of days, insofar as J.P. has begun to enjoy himself at the beach.  More importantly, he actually played in the ocean a bit.  That's huge for me, because I love the ocean.  I love everything about it.  I like to think it's "the Californian" in me, that I'll always be a beach bum at heart.  I could live at the beach, year round, easy.  Eventually, someday, I think I will.

Yesterday, J.P. waded in shallow water with Jude, filling up and emptying his bucket repeatedly.  He laughed as the waves broke over his feet and ankles, as Jude held his hands.  It was fun to watch.
