Young at Heart

December 28, 2013 by J.B.

Missy and Annie covered nearly every inch of Young’s Hill today during a spirited game of chase.

After being chased across the field, Annie took to the climbing structure, and Missy followed.

Another dash across the field.

And then another climbing structure.

Annie tried to get away to the shaky bridge but Missy got her by the foot.

But then it all ended in classic Missy style as she crashed end-over-end onto the bridge…with a smile.

    To know they are secure and comfortable enough on the hill to let down their guard to play and run is a very good thing. It was not too long ago they were so cautious and fearful and now with time and patience they are playing on the hill.
