Waiting and Hiding

Yesterday afternoon I told Charlotte that Emily was coming home and Charlotte said she wanted to go outside to wait.  We spent a good chunk of yesterday outside soaking up the advent of spring.

During this particular sortie to the backyard, she walked around and played with the dog and then kicked snow for a bit before then sitting on the steps singing to herself for a long time.  I was making dinner, watching from the kitchen. Eventually I got a chance to go out to talk to her while the sauce simmered on the stove.

The camera froze up in a few spots early on so it skips around two or three times, but it's more annoying than anything else.  We talk about singing, Emily coming home, and then Charlotte decides she wants to hide around the corner like she saw Pancho doing.
