Childhood smiles

So, this part of the story is not good.  Miss Audra sometimes sneaks out of the house. We do not like her doing that one bit. We will let her go out, provided she asks, but sometimes she thinks she's an adult and can do what she pleases. However, where she ends up does make me smile. 

I thought she was playing in our mudroom the other day while I was cleaning up dinner. Then I looked out the window. There she was.
She should have been in trouble, but I snuck outside with the camera first. She didn't notice. So I kept watching, camera in hand.
 
 She did this 3 or 4 times before she noticed me. Once she did, I of course had to speak to her about sneaking out. I should have sent her back in the house, but I just couldn't do it. It was a perfect evening to be outside.  We put on her boots, penned her where she likes to be and I went back inside to clean up.
I cannot think of a better way to spend these childhood days. Outside, the animals, not having a time schedule.  A mama cannot help but to smile.
