…My biggest fear when I make albums is that I will get the facts wrong. I don`t have a good memory and there is no one to ask. My older brother has a better memory but I can not force him to get his stories down on paper. The good thing is that he takes an interest in what I am doing here, and for that I am thankful.
So – maybe I was a little pissed last night when he called to tell me that I got the story all wrong? How could I know where my father found the stones he build “the wall” in the garden at our childhood home? I was about five. My brother knew, and the fact that my father built the wall with the foundation from the old house is important information. I might have sound pissed last night but mostly I am grateful that my brother took the time to read and correct my information. (And it is difficult not to sound pissed when you have a toothbrush in your mouth).
You got to love digital layouts – it is so easy to correct wrongs…
It`s a good thing he called before I hit print:)
Today we are most happy about our youngest family member who finally had a go with his first home this weekend. We have been waiting for a few weeks now to be sure that he and his fiance would be allowed to buy this apartment. Friday the happy couple could sign the contract and pick up the keys.

And Saturday the parents hit the road for a visit. It is difficult not to interfere when your youngest son is buying his first home. Even if you wanted to – you have to allow him to make his own decision.
A nervous mother – waiting to see the apartment.
I might have to agree with my brother that a new kitchen is needed.
Me? I have always been in a need for a new kitchen. Did I ever get a new kitchen? No. So when my brother mentioned that the young ones needed a new kitchen I was thinking; okay, then they have to keep wanting it and in the meantime they have to save the money for it…
So – maybe I have to rethink that thought? I mean – I would like this to be a great place to raise children. Since the apartment have a lot of bedrooms I trust them to have a lot of kids? I might be willing to sponsor a child? So – how is the baby planning going?
