Letters to Hailey : Almost perfect day

Haileymouse,

We made some beautiful memories this past weekend, on a short mini vacation to the beach. We just stayed for a night & a day, but we made the best of it.

We wanted to make sure we were there for at least one sunrise, so we left right after Daddy got off work Saturday & drove straight over. As soon as we got there, we saw a double rainbow. Later that night after we checked in, we walked to the boardwalk & noticed the big super moon in the midst of the breaking clouds...

In the morning, we woke up really early to watch the beautiful sunrise & on the way to breakfast, we noticed a single star in the sky. After a yummy breakfast, walking back to the room to get ready for the beach, we saw a Haileyfly in the bushes- happily eating away.

Always thinking of you.

Then we enjoyed a gorgeous morning & afternoon at the beach that reached mid 80's with no humidity, not a cloud in the sky...swimming in the cold water, napping under the umbrella, tanning (or burning for Sissy & Daddy)...enjoying the cool breeze, people watching & listening to the sound of the waves crashing against the shore.

I haven't felt so relaxed in so long...

It was an almost perfect day my mouse.

It would of been more perfect if you were physically there. But in other ways- you were. Each time we've visited the beach we've felt closer to you; to God. There is something magical that happens, just like that first time when we saw our first Haileyfly at the beach. We will never forget. <3

Each one of those things in the picture is a reminder of something else greater than us. A reminder that greater & grander things exist, that maybe they are a peek preview to another world. The world you are living now...

They represent hope...hope that one day we will be able to go through that door, & meet you there, on the other side. <3

I was picturing you my little mermaid, first one in with Bella & Daddy.
