Chincoteague- Where's Parker?





































I'll let one blog take the place of a week's worth. We had a great time at the beach with the whole Jefferies family. Lucy LOVED seeing and playing with Parker and her favorite phrase of the week was definitely "Where's Parker?" (even when he was directly in front of her sometimes). She smiled the biggest smile ever when he let her hold his hand and she would squeal with delight at the very sight of him. Parker indulged her by tickling her chin and neck and by constantly trying to get her to say whatever words came to his mind. The conversations usually went something like this: "Hey Wucy, can you say octopus? Can you say thank you say thank you? can you say your welcome? can you say pee pee head?" Of course, she obliged and then got in trouble for saying "pee pee head".
Lucy got lots of time with Gramzie and Pop Pop and as usual had Gramzie wrapped around her little pinky. They would sit on the beach and eat cheese crackers, dig in the sand and Lucy would take over Pop Pop's chair. Pop Pop would take Lucy and Parker to the water in the evenings to see the lighthouse.
Lucy loved getting into the water, digging holes in the sand, filling her bucket and climbing the beach over and over. She also loved the ice cold beach showers and would sometimes start heading down to the beach so that she could take a shower- so independent!
She already misses everyone and has been doing a run down of who she will see in Kentucky in a few weeks. Things are just not the same around here without Aunt Taylor and she misses her so much!
