Our first time ever going to a nude/naturalist location was last year at white thorn. The weekend of the 5k. And I was very nervous at first. And over this past year of going to winter swims and our trip back to white Thorn. I feel our family had gained so many positives from the experiences. There is a new found confidence in ourselfs and more love and acceptance and pride. And after some very traumatic years our family had gone through. It has made a huge difference in our life's. And I'm so thankful. For all thew new friends our family has made. And Mieka and Esme were so thrilled to be at White Thorn Lodge again this year. I've never been in a space where I feel so surrounded by so many loving and kind and wonderful people. I feel like we have been blessed. And I just wanted to share that with you and anyone else who would like to read this. Mieka yesterday did her first swimming in the deep end at white thorn and by the end of the day she was diving for rings at the bottom of the deepest part of the pool. Both girls played and swam so much yesterday. I was hardly able to get them out of the car. And they were both still asleep when I left for work this morning. They are looking forward to more trips this summer.
