The house is full of joyful noise
February 13, 2004
Tomorrow the 14th of February, Valentine's Day, Solveig will become 60 years young! Therefore the house is getting full of children and grandchildren coming home to celebrate Solveig – the best wife, mother and grandmother in the world.
As the grandchildren are playing and having fun and the children are sharing memories as well as trying to keep some secrets from their mother, the house is filled with laughter and with joyful noise.
There will be a great party on Saturday. Hopefully everything will work well. I have no skill in arranging parties. Solveig has that skill. But this time she has been made redundant. This time me and the children are arranging the party. Today I am almost panicking as there still is much to be done! Then the joyful noise of the grandchildren reminded me of the important fact that we are family and will have a lot of fun just being together irrespectively of the party arrangement is successful or not!
