Baby-sitting at the Beach

            I was running on a warm sandy beach with the wind from the inlet blowing in my face. Gigantic waves were crashing just along side of me onto the shore. All of a sudden I heard the sound of children's laughter. That was when I realized that those children were the ones I was supposed to be baby-sitting. I looked around to see where they were. My eyes fell upon them as they were standing right in the spot where the biggest wave I had seen all day was going to crash.

            I took off running as fast as I could towards them. I got there just in time to get them out of the way of the wave.
