The young woman crouches in the sand to watch her son.
She wears dark sunglasses, a headband, and loose, cool clothing.
Her arms are almost folded. She is looking at him. She is smiling.

The fairskinned boy in the green-striped shirt
is building something from the thick, heavy sand.
He squints in the bright sun and
glances toward the camera, but
he is intent upon the thing he is creating.

Just like his mother.
