Kassie, a fellow &#8220;youth pastor&#8217;s wife&#8221; enjoys her three wonderful kids age 4 down to 11months. Jeffrey is 4, Josie is 2 and Josiah is 11 months. So with those three little ones, we highly enjoy group play and discovery. And I&#8217;m tell you right now, these are some of the best behaved kids I know &#8211; comfortable in love and boundaries. So I love the opportunities, though sometimes far between, that we get to spend time with them. Many times we get the opportunity to enjoy play together amidst a joint-church youth function.<\/p>\n<p>Monday, on the other hand, we joined in their normal schedule, joining them for a pizza lunch (yum), naps and some fun indoor and outdoor play before returning home to our Daddy. While the kids all napped, Kassie and I enjoyed some Mom-time chatting about homeschooling, kids, and life.<\/p>\n<p>It was a wonderfully refreshing time for all to play and enjoy eachothers&#8217; company.<\/p>\n<p>I look forward to further hangouts. <\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s a few pictures I took during outside play:<\/p>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear:both;text-align:center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/todayslegacy.files.wordpress.com\/2012\/02\/p2209953.jpg\" style=\"margin-left:1em;margin-right:1em;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" height=\"240\" src=\"http:\/\/todayslegacy.files.wordpress.com\/2012\/02\/0ca03-p2209953.jpg\" width=\"320\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align:center;\">\u00a0Rachael enjoying the car.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align:center;\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear:both;text-align:center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/todayslegacy.files.wordpress.com\/2012\/02\/p2209958.jpg\" style=\"margin-left:1em;margin-right:1em;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" height=\"320\" src=\"http:\/\/todayslegacy.files.wordpress.com\/2012\/02\/1f69e-p2209958.jpg\" width=\"240\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align:center;\">Abi after she &#8220;patiently&#8221; awaited her turn.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align:center;\">She means business, don&#8217;t even think about asking for your turn.\u00a0<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align:center;\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear:both;text-align:center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/todayslegacy.files.wordpress.com\/2012\/02\/p2209957.jpg\" style=\"margin-left:1em;margin-right:1em;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" height=\"320\" src=\"http:\/\/todayslegacy.files.wordpress.com\/2012\/02\/f6ce5-p2209957.jpg\" width=\"240\" \/>\u00a0<\/a><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align:center;\">\u00a0Abi traded her four pink wheels for Jacob&#8217;s two wheels. <\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align:center;\">(Jacob had just returned home from a weekend youth function when we were leaving.)<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear:both;text-align:center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/todayslegacy.files.wordpress.com\/2012\/02\/p2209959.jpg\" style=\"margin-left:1em;margin-right:1em;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" height=\"240\" src=\"http:\/\/todayslegacy.files.wordpress.com\/2012\/02\/a08b8-p2209959.jpg\" width=\"320\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align:center;\">All the kids minus Josiah, who was in the house due to the weather and only being in a onesie (he wasn&#8217;t feeling so well, poor guy).<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align:center;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align:center;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align:center;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align:left;\">Wonderful day had by all.
