Life with 3 kids meant that there was never a dull day in the Hyun Family House.  Ki Rai was now 2 while her siblings were 5 and 6 years old. Ye Jin and Hyun Bin still couldn't believe how fast their children were growing up. It was true that when one has children of their own, time seems to speed up.

Precisely because of that, the lovebirds cherished every moment they could spend with their children. Like every household, there were days of joy and laughter, but there were also days of frustration and tears. Yet, every memory was precious to them. They love their children.

Currently, Ki Rai was taking her nap and their older ones were at school. In the rare moment of silence, Hyun Bin and Ye Jin were snuggled up on the couch as they flipped through the numerous photographs in the photobook.

They have been documenting every memory that they could, and the photographs were proof of that. Ye Jin and Hyun Bin had their heads bent over the photo album as they laughed and took a walk down memory lane together. Occasionally, they would recall a fond memory and share it with one another.

Memory 1 – LAVA!

The children were currently on break. Screams and shouts filled the common room as Eun Ae clambered on the couch. Ye Jin was too busy in the kitchen with Mdm Ji Hyun to hear what her children were up to.

Most days, she could trust Jeong Eun and Eun Ae to be alone since they were old enough to know wrong from right. Besides, Jeong Eun was especially mature for his age, and he would protect his little sisters no matter what.

Meanwhile, Hyun Bin just got home from work when he heard the screams. His eyes widened in alarm as he followed the sounds, only to see chaos in the common room. Jeong Eun was literally hanging off one of the bookshelves while Eun Ae was on top of the couch. Little Ki Rai was on the table clapping and giggling at her siblings. Hyun Bin was just about to speak when Eun Ae suddenly screamed again.

"Appa! No! The floor is lava! You'll die if you step on it!" Eun Ae warned her appa.

Hyun Bin didn't know whether to laugh or cry at this point as he looked at his three monkeys. Right now, his priority was getting Jeong Eun off the shelf and his princesses off the furniture. They could have hurt themselves! Yet, Hyun Bin is a big softie for his children and their imagination, and he rarely had the heart to scold them.

"Children, what is going on?" Came his wife's stern voice from behind him.

Gulping, everyone's attention was on Ye Jin instantly as she stood at the entrance to the common room with her hands on her hip. They were all familiar with the expression on her face and this time, even Hyun Bin was scared.

Technically, he didn't do anything wrong but just seeing the tiger eyes Jinnie was shooting at their children was enough to send shivers down his spine.
