Suneera and I joined them, helping with the sandcastles and taking in the joy of our children enjoying the simple pleasures of the beach.
Enjoying the Sea
After some fun on the sand, it was time to enjoy the water. Fathima and Fadiya loved splashing in the waves, their giggles echoing over the sound of the sea. Suneera and I took turns watching over them and taking short dips in the refreshing water. The cool waves were a welcome respite from the warm sun, and we all enjoyed the playful moments together.
