Magic may not be real, but it is possible to create magical moments in our everyday lives!

When Mikki was a child, she loved seashell hunting with her dad. Together, they’d always uncover the most gorgeous treasures. This time spent together meant a lot to her, especially since her dad was in the Marines and would frequently get deployed.

That’s why, when she was finally able to take her own 10 and 5-year-olds seashell hunting, she couldn’t do it without her dad… quite literally. Turns out, there was a reason they always had such good luck in finding so many beautiful seashells.

“He goes to the souvenir shop to purchase a bag full of beautiful shells and plants them for us to find them,” Mikki said. “He always made adventures fantastical, and I’m still learning the extent of it.”

Watch Mikki’s kids get their own taste of magic below, and don’t forget to share that magic with a friend.
