Feelings
and frostbites
I’m finally
writing my blog again. I totally underestimated the amount of time that you are
busy with taking care of the kids. During the writing process of these last two
sentences I have taken the antenna wire and a cream bottle out of my 11month
olds mouth. Besides that it’s impossible to write this at the moment since both
S and D want to “help” me write with the computer. And still – I love this.
Just two days ago I started feeling sorry that I have to go back to work after
six months ;). I think the feelings I’ve experienced have been more or less the same than with all other parents
that are home taking care of the children – it requires patience, sometimes you
feel tired and once in a while you are happy when the kids are asleep although
feeling like that gives you a bad conceusness. But on
the other hand it’s a very healthy kind of lifestyle – you wake up every
morning latest at 6:30. Then between 06:30 a.m and 05:30 p.m you have maybe 20
minutes to sit down by yourself if the kids happen to sleep at the same time.
Anyway,
January and February are over now – the spring is slowly coming to us. It’s
been a really warm winter. The whole of February the temperature has been over
0 celcius, and we have been able to play outside a lot. In January there was
only one colder period of three weeks when the temperatures were between -10
and -20 degrees celcius. We didn’t go out much during that time – I found out
the hard way on the first cold day. We walked for an hour and the younger one
got frostbite on his left cheek. First the skin turned red after that blueish and
hard. Now the skin is normal again but it took a month to heel. We did not
treat the skin except in the beginning for a week with Bepanthen twice a day. I
really hope it doesn’t get cold anymore this winter
