Ever since I was a young child, March has been one of my favorite months. Maybe it’s because March is the month of my birthday and the first glimpse of spring. Today I am looking back at another month gone by and for us March 2015 was the month where…

… we experienced both snowstorms and  warm spring sun which resulted in freezing fingers and sunburnt noses.

… I could add another year to my age.

… both my kids found joy in doing yoga, and Alma learned to say Mamaste (with an M instead of an N)

… Eleanor got her first report book at school. And it was nothing less than perfect.

… Alma learned to count to 20.

… I took up knitting again after a 20 year break.

… we began our Easter preparations.

… we had our first picnic of the year.

… we found out that Alma has allergies.

… Eleanor and I went to the cinema to see Cinderella.

… Alma decided that she only needs to nap every second day.

… we visited a snowy white Coney Island.

… Alma was given the most beautiful pair of moccasins from Hubble and Duke. 

… and we spent hours upon hours reading books, playing with dolls and drawing cookie monsters.

Lige siden jeg var barn, har marts været en af mine yndlingsmåneder. Måske fordi den indeholdte min fødselsdag, måske fordi den bød på de første forårsdage. Idag siger vi farvel og kigger tilbage og for os blev marts 2015 måneden hvor …

… Vi oplevede både snestorm og de første forårsdage, hvilket resulterede i forfrosne fingre og solbrændte næser.

… jeg kunne tilføje endnu et år til aldersregnskabet.

… begge mine børn blev vilde med at dyrke yoga, og Alma lærte at sige Mamaste (med M i stedet for N)

… Eleanor fik sin første karakterbog i skolen og stolte forældre fik tårer i øjnene over fantastiske udtalelser.

… Alma lærte at tælle til 20.

… Jeg begyndte at strikke igen efter en pause på blot 20 år.

… Vi begyndte at forberede os til påske.

… Vi havde årets første picnic.

… Vi fandt ud af, at Alma er allergiker.

… Eleanor og jeg tog i biografen for at se Askepot.

… Alma besluttede at hun ikke længere behøvede at sove lur hver dag.

… Vi besøgte et snehvidt Coney Island.

… Alma fik de smukkeste mokkasiner fra Hubble and Duke.

… og vi brugte timer på at læse bøger, lege med dukker og tegne venlige monstre.

  1. Lovely March! With quite a bit of snow, just like in Oslo.

      It was Tina! A bit too cold for my liking, but spring has arrived and all the snow is easily forgotten 🙂
