In the backyard lay a broken swing, and Dundo and Pino were getting ready to fix it. Little Vito sat on the grass, holding a box of screws, while Jole sniffed around, eagerly waiting for his chance to help. "How are we going to fix this, Dad?" Pino asked, as Eva watched and smiled from the window.
Dundo sighed, observing the swing that once brought so much joy. "First, we need to remove the damaged part," he said, showing Pino how to use the wrench. Vito, though small, carefully watched every move, while Jole carried a hammer in his mouth, eager to be part of the action. "Why did the swing break?" Vito asked, and Dundo laughed, pleased that the little one wanted to understand. "Sometimes things break when we use them a lot, but that doesn't mean we can't fix them." Pino carefully followed Dundo, mimicking every action. "Dad, will the swing be as good as new again?" "It will be even better because we'll fix it together," Dundo replied, resting a hand on Pino's shoulder. Eva watched from the window as the parts came together again, thinking about how a family is like a swing. When something breaks, a joint effort and love can mend everything.
