Be more specific!

In school today I took a small reading group. We were covering a bit of basic phonics, and I pointed to a picture of a fire and said "f-f-f-fire...what does fffire start with?" "Smoke", said one serious little boy. Yeah, got to love 5-year-olds.
After tea in the evening we walked to the beach - it had been such a hot day that it seemed like a good idea at the time, but when we actually got there a slight wind had sprung up which cooled things down a little. No matter, it was still beautiful and we are reminded of our blessings in living so close to the ocean!The photo above is intended to be out of focus...this wasn't an accidentally bad picture! I loved the symbolism of 'boy and sea'...
