I recently moved Linn to another new daycare. This daycare is just 200m from our house and it would definitely help with the logistics, specially in the coming winter months.

It was Linn’s first day of school last Friday and I accompanied her to school as Sweden requires parents to ‘school-in’ their kids. She was fine with meeting new kids and teachers and quickly fit into her new environment. In no time, she was dancing and singing with the kids.

When her new teacher, Victoria asked if she has any another sibling, we talked briefly about Jonathan’s autism. Linn then told Victoria in swedish: ‘My brother, Jonathan is special because he does not have many thoughts in his head’.

I was surprised with her description and Victoria thought that it was a really good way to describe Jonathan from Linn’s perspective.

Jonathan also surprises me at time. The other day, he asked me if I am not feeling well and he asked me to sit down to rest. He then told me ‘I love you mummy’.

These moments are truly priceless.
