This girl with long braids is my oldest sister. The picture was taken in Katwijk, a seaside resort where we used to spend our summers when we were kids. It holds treasured memories and probably is the reason why I love the sea so very much. The first time in years that we all went back as a family was to celebrate our mothers 80th birthday. It was also the last time we were complete. Since then our brother in law and our mother passed away, our brother is married to wife number three and our oldest niece has had a baby. Today we come together again, to celebrate my oldest sisters 60th birthday. She has rented the same beach club she and her husband used to celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary. We will all stay at the same hotel. This weekend will be about family and sharing magical moments once again.

I love your sister's photograph because it reminds me of a time when we were properly dressed to go to the beach, or just about anywhere. What a lovely seaside hotel. You must have fun reminiscing.
what a special, intense, heart-filled experience you must be having with your family. i hope you are in the arms of the angels.
take good care, marloes!
Oh, those are magical moments.
A lovely weekend to be at the beach for sure!
