To be honest, it is not easy to keep this blog going. You probably noticed that the postings are rather sporadic and i tend to blog after big holidays and special events.

During the ‘normal’ daily lives, we try to get through from one activity to another – out of bed, breakfast, school, catch the bus, work, catch the bus home, grocery shopping, prepare dinner, clean up, homework, household chores, bed. It is not mundane, but time just breezes by. It is already difficult to find time to do my own thing. I wish i have the discipline to write weekly to report on the kids’ progress and what we have been up to. But it is definitely not an easy task.

At times, i do feel like giving up but when i read through all the old blogs, it does bring such wonderful memories to me. I really want the kids to keep their childhood memories, how they celebrated their birthdays, what they did during their school holidays, their naughty pranks, the seasonal holidays and the sweet memories of spending time with their family. I have to keep reminding myself that this is the purpose of the blog, to keep these memories alive and to share these with our dear family and friends.

So i hope that i will persevere with this …to keep this blog alive. I do think that it helps to keep track of my English which is deproving quite a bit. Not that my swedish is getting any better. I am embarrassed by the numerous grammatical and spelling errors and for the lack of content at times. But maybe i shouldn’t care so much after all….this is OUR BLOG!!!
