After a long day working in the shops, Dutch Husband and the girls came to get me and we headed out to Kits Beach.
The idea was a stroll along the waters edge to hunt for beach glass.
I love beach glass.
I have a little antique silverplated creamer filled with last summers treasure and am hoping to build up our budding collection.

Hunting for beach glass is fun.
Unfortunately, those lovely tumbled bits of magic are hard to come by, so we also tend to gather other treasures - bits of tumbled shell or pretty pebbles.

Watching the sunset we decided it was officially time to go home but Anika felt we had to stay a bit longer since "we haven't found enough pretty things together"
I swear, she said this.
It made me do a little happy dance inside.
I did however point out that, yes, we had found a few pieces of shell and some glass together and that tomorrow was indeed, another day.

Unfortunately, I will be in the shops all day and the girls will go to the beach with their loving daddy - I will meet up with my brood after we close for the day.
The waters edge and it's infinite treasures awaits.

My juggle of business and motherhood continues...
