Skellefteå is still very much on our minds and hearts. The other day one of our boys came running shouting 'Schau Papa - Ich hab eine AIK-Larv gefunden', meaning 'look dad I've found a caterpillar with the colour of our local hockeyteam' (from Sweden).
Today we visited som friends who live on a small farm where they keep chickens, goats, rabbits, deer and a cow. They also grow loads of different fruits such as grapes, peaches, apples and nashi. It was wonderful to see the love they have for their land and animals, how they call them all by name and treat them with respect.
We also took a walk in the nearby forest picking flowers and admiring the huge beech trees that grew there.
The boys' language comprehension has already improved. Previously they would watch kids' shows in German without really understanding the dialogue. Now it's like someone has flipped a switch, they follow the story and happily fill us in on what we've missed.
Tänk om ens egen hjärna kunde lära sig så snabbt....
