Hide and seek

I've been having a game of hide and seek.....with the cat!!

When I came home from choir she was at the kitchen window, wanting in. She had a quick bite of supper, then started her usual "mad half hour" routine of haring about, up the stairs and down again, under the chairs and all over the place, at top speed.

I came out of the kitchen, at one stage and she was sitting half way up the stairs. She took off up to the landing and then flattened herself down, looking down the stairs, so I slowly started climbing the stairs on my hands and knees. She watched me till I was half way up then dashed into the spare room. I stopped at the top of the stairs, still on my hands and knees, and waited.

She's just like the bairns...no patience!...so after a few seconds silence she crawled to the door to see where I was! When she saw me she darted back into the room and hid in her favourite spot - the bed-side locker! As soon as I came into the room she was off again, full pelt up to my room.

We had a great game!

I'm grateful to Gorgeous tonight for reminding me that a little bit of fun every now and then is a very good thing!

She is now sprawled out on the bottom of my bed, while I write my blog here on the lap-top. And I have a child on either side, reading their books!

Just as well Daddy isn't ready for bed just yet...no room!!

Gratefully yours.
