treasures

Today Bud returned from his morning surf bearing gifts: two bits of sea glass and monarch wings he spotted on the walk home. I was ecstatic! Sea glass is one of my favorite surprises and I don't seem to spot it very often. And the butterfly wings, well... just tell me who doesn't love those? (I hope she traveled far and wide, gliding along the ocean breeze and feasting on all the sweetest nectars.)

All good things are wild and free.
