An Unscheduled Afternoon

We had such a simple day today. We finished our studies this morning...I was considering taking the kids to the local playground for a while to run around this afternoon with some friends. In the meantime, we had just finished lunch and we were going to take a walk. The kids ran to get their socks....and did not return. They got distracted and ending up playing for the next 3 hours together. What a relaxing afternoon! The kids played together, communicated well and shared ideas, and used their imaginations all afternoon long! We haven't had one of these types of days in a while. I was so glad I didn't "schedule" a playground date for us.
