Today is supposedly the last day of winter. It is still 0 degrees and white outside. Well, it is definitely an improvement from the -20 degrees we had in the last few weeks.
I cannot believe that we have been here for 7 months now. Definitely an interesting journey so far. Yesterday, I was reading Woffles Wu’s article in 8 Days. (Yes, my wonderful friend, Bert sent some old copies of my favourite magazine to me) His article was about how some people have emigrated over to another country thinking that the grass is greener over the other side but when they found out that it is not greener, they cannot bring themselves to return to their home country with shame.
Hmmmm….I wondered about our journey so far. The grass is definitely not greener and in fact, we have not seen much grass. We know exactly why we are here and we can only hope it will work well for Jonathan. It is great for the kids to know their swedish roots. Yes, I admit that it has not been exactly easy….specially for me. But I guess we all just need to embrace this new experience and make the best out of it!
Well, we survived our first winter!!! Hurray!
