Sea Glass Hearts

a woman's heart .. tumbled by the Sea of Life!!...Sea Glass, once part of a whole, now after being cracked & broken, water & sand have softened the edges & created a new artistic form. A metaphor for a person who has evolved through various passages, soft & hard sides of life, into something new & beautiful. I'm a Catholic wife and mom of 3. Living Lord guided homeschooling near the ocean. Our adventures in learning, digital scrapbook, diary & learning log.
