Time to play

Opening the front door, 
Still transitioning mentally from work to home
Smalls energetically greets me and leads/follows me into the kitchen, 
swats at the bell on the sliding glass door
until I open it. 
Bursting, running, barking, digging, 
Smalls is reveling in the freedom.
And when it is time to come in, 
she resists. 
Trudging out to retrieve her
she senses 
I am still mentally transitioning to the weekend.
Picking up the biggest stick, 
she looks at me
daring me to chase. 
And so it begins, 
a chase of joy.
Reminding me to let go
and play.
