Kelsey Barnard Clark Instagram – My new book is chock-full of pictures that value special moments, memories & meaning, but these bts shots that Antonis so artfully captured hold the most weight. I’m not entirely sure if this is a good or bad thing, but I truly have no hard intentions or big dreams for my kids. I want them to be kind to themselves & others, work hard, be brave, chase happy. But the one silly thing I’ve always dreamed of was to have a bunch of crab trap babies like me, my siblings, cousins, generations before us were. I believe it’s the strongest blood tradition we have- this need to be on the water. We learned to set a trap & clean a crab before we were out of diapers, quite literally. Set & cast a line like a passed down muscle memory. This view is the reason we signed the sale of this beach house & buying it was one of the strongest personal goals I had for myself. To be able to provide a simple, marshy, salt water soaked life for my kids in the midst of this busy, ever-connected life we live. Where days are scheduled around boat rides, swims & golden hours. Meals cooked based on what we caught, what they cleaned, what we bought from our garden. I’ve been away two-ish weeks now & this view, with them, is what I miss the most.
My second book, Southern Get Togethers, is available for pre-order now or at the link in bio. | Posted on 24/Jul/2024 00:19:48
