Opposite day
Summer Solstice - Midsommar - is almost as big a holiday here in Sweden as Christmas. This year was rainy but you could still hear traditional music, dance around the maypole and put flowers in your hair.
It has been a bit of a rollercoaster lately in our family, with the death of a great-grandmother who was such a sweet person in life. Hugging her felt like holding a bird in your arms. She never had a chance to see little Ivar. Tyra called her ‘Gammelmormor Skakhals’, which is totally impossible to translate but would be ‘Great Grandma Shaky-Chin’ or something similar.
I am home alone with Ivar while our other two family member attend the funeral. It just for a few nights, but I miss them so.
Meanwhile I browse, listen to the radio, snuggle with Ivar. He giggles every time someone whispers in his ear!
