The Chase

You know that feeling when you are running from something and you realize that what you are running from is about to catch you...

That feeling that takes your breath away and makes your heart skip a beat.

That...is Hannah's favorite.

One of her very favorite things to do is play 'chase'.  She literally just wants us to chase her around.  She taunts us and giggles uncontrollably as she weaves her way in and out of furniture obstacles to get away from us. 

Then, when we get close, there is a giddy squeal and you know that that feeling is welling up inside of her.  Sometimes she will run into the arms of someone who is not doing the chasing for them to 'save' her...that is my favorite since I am usually the one doing the saving :)  Once she is 'caught', we cuddle and then she begs with her puppy dog face, "Will you chase me again.  Just one more time..."  How can you say 'no' to that??

It is one of the sweetest things ever.  And, it takes the saying, 'the thrill of the chase' to a whole new level :)
