Makes my Monday

Hide-and-seek. The greatest game in our household. We switch it around a bit, and we have only one hider (with parental help if needed), and the rest are seekers. This can keep all four kids engaged.

Although they love it, the kids' giggles always give them away when hiding. And they aren't really that good at seeking either. They'll go into a room, give it a cursory glance, and decide that no one's hiding in there. No looking in, under, or behind anything.

I, on the other hand, am a very good hider. I can usually find a nice, cozy, comfortable hiding place and sit there silently for a very long time while the kids run around trying to find me. It is a great way to take a break. And that is why hide-and-seek makes my Monday.
