Hide & Seek

Life as a child is hard—people telling you what to do, so many places to explore, things to do, and so many limits, boundaries, rules. But nothing can beat that feeling of confidence you get when you’re a child with a family who thinks you’re just great at everything. You’re witty and smart, a very fast runner, a great ball kicker, hole digger, artist.

LT is my older child who just turned 3. She is a master hider. When we play hide and seek, no one can seem to find her! Here she is a couple of weeks ago at Grandma Wendy and Grandpa Phil’s house, hiding as Grandpa looks high and low for her.

Having nearly mastered the technique of under-table hiding, she tried it again last week at Nana Lee & Grandpa Steve’s house. The face-under-the-rug maneuver was a last minute addition. Very tricky! Nana and I had a very difficult time…stifling our giggles!
