A young child, seemingly around 3-4 years old, is standing waist-deep in the turquoise waters of a beach. The child is wearing a colorful bikini swimsuit with a yellow top and blue bottoms. Their back is facing the camera, revealing a bowl-cut hairstyle. The child appears to be holding a small object, possibly a toy or seashell, in their hands. The background shows crashing waves and a cloudy sky, with water droplets suspended in the air, creating a serene and playful atmosphere.

I thought I’d do a throwback to Greece, since I’m not there and missing it. Then I found this photo and decided to throw it AAAALLL the way back. •• Growing up, I spent my summers in the sea, from the first possible day it was warm enough to swim (early May) to the last day of the season (October, if I was lucky). Even now, breathing in that salt air calms me in a way nothing else does. •• Also yes, I had a bowl cut. Of course I had a bowl cut. Didn’t everyone at that age? . . . . .
