I have already written about the dark, windy and rainy days and nights we are having here in Trondheim for the moment. Nights perfect for crafting.
I bought yarn and started a project for a new born baby today (will write more about it in a couple of weeks). Marta loves drawing and painting. I love this flower she has painted. The first spring flower. In Norwegain we call it Leirfivel or Hestehov, the Latin name is Tussilago Farfara (every Norwegian child, and adult love this name as farfar means grandpa in Norwegian, tussilago sounds to me like a small troll, like the small trolls we have out in our garden)
The 27th of February is Marta's 10th birthday. Her main wish for the impofrtant day is her own cell phone ("all" the others in her class have one already). She will get one, but I am also planning to give her some real, professional art supplies. I want to give her something extra this year since I will be sitting at a farm in Austria writing on my book on her birthday.
