SKYNI

Linn has been bugging me for the past 2 years about getting her ear lobes pierced. I have been reluctant largely because she is too young. Plus, I don’t see many places providing this service in Stockholm. I thought i need to go to a tattoo piercing shop to get this done.

So when I had the chance last week and saw a shop that provides this service, I surprised her by asking her if she wanted to do it on the spot.

She did not have much time to consider (or getting cold feet) and now, she is extremely proud of her pierced ear lobes. It was priceless seeing her grinned from ear to ear. She glanced at the mirror every moment she can and I can see how happy she was. I am just glad to be there with her, allowing her to choose her first earring, and holding her hands when they did the piercing.

I love doing these girly things with my daughter.

If only she likes shopping.

It has been a few months since i blogged. I must admit that i have forgotten about the blogg and I keep telling myself that i should. These memories are precious to me and i look at the kids now and feel that they have grown so much in the last couple of years.

The winter has been kind to us. The snow came a little late and it would have been great to have a nice white Christmas. But you can’t get everything.

The kids love to play in the snow and I cannot say the same about me. I am still very much hiding at home trying to keep warm. I am glad that my kids are not like me. Kudos to Nicke who forces them up to build snowmen and another fun snow activities.

Linn had a first piano recital sometime in December last year…..a really short one. But we are very happy for her and she did well.

I decided not to be the tiger mom and just let her try out piano classes with the school. Hopefully she will sustain her interest.
