“They didn’t leave; but they’re hiding from you.”
“Why?”
“Because, you’re it, go look for them. They’ve barely been able to contain themselves; waiting for you to come home and play. Just don’t look in the garage, at least not right away.”

This is sweet, Thom. We often tell our son he sounds like an elephant as he tromps around the house. Hard to hide in that case 🙂

When my girls were young they both had a tendency to slink around the house, delighting in going unnoticed.

I assume you have an oversized garage! Sweet, yeah, but I can’t help seeing elephants covering their eyes in the garage, trying not to giggle.
