You know, I found out that my little brothers not alone broke this gigantic mirror we have in our living room but [today I found out] they also broke the garage door’s window and a lamp. The garage door isn’t such a big deal because it doesn’t work anyway and the lamp…we have plenty and I don’t know which one it was. :] [My parents should have told me earlier, it is too late for me now. I prefer action to be taken as soon as possible. It works better.]

This mirror, we didn’t pay for-it came with the house when we moved in but…it is a bit of a shame. I mean it is like 6 feet wide and cracked about 5 feet now. They hit it with a hard baseball, accidentally last night when I wasn’t around (my mother was) because if I was…well whenever they play ball I let them enjoy themselves you know? But I always stop it before it gets out of hand. I can just sense when something is going to break if they continue. Of course, they listen to me.

So, I’ve told them they aren’t allowed to play ball in the house anymore. Mendim thinks that he has 14 years of bad luck and I’m not superstitious but I let him think that since I probably can’t change his mind and I wanted him to feel a lil’ guilty so he wouldn’t do it again. [I feel like the latter was a lil' bad but Kevin says it is important for them to learn a lesson and that is probably my reasoing as well.]

I didn’t punish them because it was an accident. One of them threw the ball too high to catch and it being heavy hit the mirror and…wow.

Heh, one, two, three. You'rrrree OUT!

accident, respect, power, disipline
