A world without nuclear weapons

by Tobias on April 28, 2009

I’m very much into Obama’s idealism. Really hope he goes on with this. With his speech about nuclear weapons. I especially liked the last sentence: ”But now we, too, must ignore the voices who tell us that the world cannot change. (Cover of the Economist, April 11th 2009)

Keagan’s birthday cake

by Tobias on April 27, 2009

This are the remains of yesterday’s birthday cake. Today Keagan took the second one of these to day care. He told us this evening that Manuela (one of the employees there) called it a “very stupid cake” and so Keagan took the whole cake home again. We then said that he sure was fibbing and (…)

My favorite girls in the world

The boys of course fed the animals, Diego and Aidan had a go on the ride-on toy-cars and I think Keagan had a really splendid (…)
