Kumta beach

As a baby, Lil P was terrified of vast expanses of water. When she was a few months old, we had taken her to a pool and the cold water had scared her pretty bad. It got so worse that she refused to go near lakes, wells and even water fountains. She would get hysterical and start screaming. For a long time, we avoided any place that was around a large water body.

 If you’ve followed my blog for long, you’ll know that my in laws stay in a beach town and right across the street is a beautiful beach. This pic is from her first trip to the beach at their place. We were very scared that she would start screaming when she saw the sea for the first time.

But there is something magical, untouched about the beach there. The first time Lil p set her eyes on it, she was excited, joyous even.. I can still picture her running from one end to the other her curls flying in the cool breeze. We were amazed! It was a wonderful milestone for all of us.That day she started loving water again.

This picture fills me with immense joy each time I see it..
