Loggerhead mom reminds us to trust the path

We were gifted a very special sunrise this morning—spectacular colors painted the sky, but the true highlight was a majestic loggerhead sea turtle mom laying her eggs just as the sun rose to greet the day.

As time passed, more people quietly gathered to witness her sacred journey. After she finished laying her eggs, she began her return to the ocean—but she seemed a bit disoriented. Thankfully, the New Smyrna Beach Turtle Trackers were on site, gently monitoring her progress from a respectful distance.

Each time she turned away from the ocean, the energy of the crowd shifted—you could feel our collective hearts silently cheering her in the right direction. It was so special to witness the power of love being beamed toward her, helping her find her way home.

Eventually, her inner wisdom guided her back to the sea, and when she reached the water, the crowd erupted in cheers and a shared sigh of relief.

She reminded us to trust the path, even when it’s winding or seems uncertain. Many wanted to help, but this was her journey—and she made it. Thank you, Momma, for allowing us to witness your strength and grace.

Wishing you a beautiful day friends!
