Great tools

Lisa, the boys' aunt, gave the boys a bunch of dental tools last time we visited Missouri. These have come in handy in many situations and this morning was another perfect example.
We celebrated Valentine's Day with Swedish pancakes filled with strawberry jam and whip cream for breakfast, and the boys each found a small token by their plates. Noah's was a metal model replica of the Eiffel Tower, one of his favorite structures. He and Lukas set out to put it together and quickly realized that despite the instructions 'easy no tools required' statement, there really was a need for good tools.
A quick trip to the garage, where they quickly located the proper tools, and the tower came together in a jiffy. I think I have lost count on how many kinds of Eiffel Tower Noah has put together either by himself of with the help of his brother.

Valentine's Day certainly has a different tenor with boys around the house - as the Mamma I am truly blessed.
