    Help

    Hi everybody!
    We need help most in the house, because we have three kids : one of 9 years old, and twins 20 months.
    Stay with the mum all day long, take care of the babies, help with the order and the harmony in the house, sometimes cooking, sometimes cleaning, sometimes play with the older son, sometimes just take the babies in arm.
    Help can be as well in the garden and the olive camp. In February and march, it is time to prune the olive trees!
