An afternoon at the lake

We managed to catch the last rays of sun at the lake. There was a homeless guy sitting on a bench, drinking a beer. People pretended not to see him and he stared at them, singing loudly and angrily as they walked past. He looked lonely so I smiled at him as we walked by. M probably did too because he gave her an embarrassed look and he didn't sing behind our backs. We also saw lots of ducks, swans and old people. M touched a few piles of dirty snow and then it was time to go home.

Awkward parking

That awkward moment when you smile at a neighbour on the street while you're parking and you accidentally hit the car behind you. That more awkward feeling when that car turns out to be your neighbour's.

I don't need a glass

M's new favourite ways of drinking water (or at least getting water in the proximity of her mouth): 
a) putting her hand in Klara's water bowl then licking the water off the hand and 
b) putting her water bottle in Klara's water bowl and trying to drink from it.

I don't need a spoon

I made a mistake when I served muesli to M this morning. She didn't want me to feed her but she almost immediately gave up on the spoon, so she was eating milk with her fingers. It was highly inefficient but it lasted for a while because she's quite stubborn. We switched to a banana after a while, but not soon enough.
