Happy Birthday Tor Magnus
Our baby boy is three.
He is creative, he is funny and he love cars…
…and more cars…
He spent Sunday turning his back at me…
No worries – it is spring…
Enjoy being three!
31 things – conversation
Hm…I`m a talker and I love to have conversations with myself. This may be a result of me living alone or this could be the reason why I live alone. Interesting:)
For as long as I remember the kitchen table has been the place for talks in my family. This is where we talk and discuss, and we talk and discuss a lot about everything.
Working with customers I talk all day long. The one thing I miss in my everyday life is the quick chats before work and during lunch. Fewer and fewer hands doing the same amount of work makes work a lonely place to be. That is not a good thing.

Going out in the world
Leaving your childhood home and your mother – is exciting. All the home comings are the best. I know all about that and I remember my mother`s word every time I left: “You know you can always come back home if things get bad”.
My mother isn`t among us anymore and I am back home for good. Now it is my brother`s wife who experience the coming and goings in our family…
Farewells have become part of your everyday life. The phone rings and you are notified that they are on the way home. Sometimes they don`t. Or they come without a message. Sometimes you make the beds, prepare good food and you invite everyone to a party. Just to be told that they will come the next day.
Sometimes there’s just enough money to drive the car home. Sometimes all they bring is the old bills they can`t pay. But sometimes you can enjoy pleasant surprises.
It’s like running the carousel – it is high up and far down. Or, as your mother in law said to me – it’s nice when you come and even better when you leave.
31 things – spirit
Today`s prompt is spirit. Spirit? My first thought was church and the church certainly isn`t my place of choice. Then again I have come to love going there with the little ones in the family. The churches around here are pretty much empty on any ordinary Sundays but there are exceptions. Like the Sunday when all the four-year olds are invited to come and receive a book from the church. A very kid friendly Sunday in church and a big success. The success inspired a new invite when they turn 6 and so on. With three little ones in the family there will be a lot of Sundays in church:)
I have to admit that this is the only thing that would prompt me to go to church – in addition to baptism, wedding and funerals.
So – does that make me a believer? I don`t spend time thinking about that but if I was a believer I would say as my father said when he was prompted to come to church: ” I can meet my lord in my own house”.
