she searches
for sand dollars
  by the seashore.

my sister found this sand dollar while visiting the beach with her youngest son who will be going off to college soon. They leave early tomorrow morning to return to Connecticut and it will seem very quiet after they are gone. I am so glad she found a sand dollar or two -the last time she was here she searched but did not find one. I have only found a tiny one and just once!
