The boys have been very expensive lately. This weekend Juergen repaired a hold in the back wall of the house. One of the boys got curious about Juergens electric screwdriver. He tried to put a screw in the outside wall and ended up punching a big hole in the wall. Then they repaired the sofa. The boys were using it as a trampoline when I wasn't in the room. It broke the frame of the sofa. So Juergen had to repair that. Then there was the olive oil problem. A few weeks ago I asked the boys to carry in the groceries from the car. One of the boys dropped a bag of groceries onto the ground, and dragged it to the house. When they dropped the bag, it broke a bottle of good olive oil. The whole walkway was soaked in oil. Juergen had to buy expensive soap, and rent a special machine to get the oil out of the stone walkway. Oh, they also broke the stain glass kitchen window. I have to pay 400€ to get that replaced. On the positive side, they are learning how to use tools to fix things. They are also going to grow up (please tell me they grow up). They are at a very difficult age...like two bulls in a China shop. I pray they bless me when I am old. That when I need someone to help fix stuff around the house my boys will know what to do...We are making an investment!
