\nMorning: cycled with Ingrid to a birthday party. I can do that kind of stuff again now that Adrian is somewhat used to being without me. It felt good to be able to give Ingrid my undivided attention for a while. And it felt good to cycle.\n<\/p>\n
\nAfternoon: dug out dandelions from our lawn. I don’t aspire to a weed-free lawn, indeed I don’t aspire to any kind of a lawn, but I don’t want the dandelions to spread out of control. I got rid of a few dozen today, I think – rather satisfying. Meanwhile Ingrid made me a “soup” with dandelions and daisies, birch catkins and lilac flowers.\n<\/p>\n
\nEvening: neither of the kids was tired after dinner so we headed to the playground. Or rather, Eric and Ingrid headed to the playground, and I thought I’d let Adrian wind down for bedtime. He was immediately upset about their departure – started crying as soon as they left, became happy again when we went into the hall, and dived from my arms towards the stroller. So we followed them (although with a hip seat instead of the stroller) and watched Ingrid enjoy herself on the swing and the slide and the merry-go-round. Then we fed dandelion leaves to the sheep who live at Spanga gymnasium next to the playground.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
