“And I have a kettledrum
I’ll hit the earth with you.
And I will crochet you a hat.
And I have a red kite;
I’ll put you right in it.
I’ll show you the sky”
Sufjan Stevens “Sister” from the album Seven Swans

As a birthday gift I gave my love two tickets to the Sufjan Stevens concert last night at Berns Salonger. The songs of Sufjan can often be heard at our home and has climbed rapidly on both our lists. To attend his concert last night was a magical and playful treat and I would not hesitate to see it again if I had a chance.

Here is a link for a video at YouTube to give you an idea of the concert, although it is not recorded in Stockholm.

I actually believe that my baby enjoyed it too, listening in my tummy. His somersaults were calm and careful. It was not easy to stand up for several hours, but I saw at least two other clearly pregnant bellies in the room.

Why dio I feel a strong urge to start a crocheted hat?
