Poo confusion

I tied Klara to one of the benches near the playground while M and I ran around. After a few minutes I saw an angry woman approaching me, asking if that was my dog. I said “Yes, but I made sure she wasn't directly at the playground", thinking that was what bothered her. She asked: "And you'll just leave it there?" I was surprised, realising that she was actually worried about the dog being left alone. So I said "Oh, we're leaving soon anyway, but she's used to that, she doesn't mind." The woman looked utterly confused but not angry any more. After a few long seconds of looking at each other in silence, she said "Oh, you're talking about your dog! I was talking about the dog poo on the grass!"
That wasn't mine, but I'm sure that dog poo didn't mind being left alone either.

Night train to Croatia

Taking a night train to Rijeka. After we already took off, they told us that we'll have to change onto a bus in Ljubljana at 6 a.m. (and then travel to Rijeka on a bus for two hours!). I was very annoyed but my parents said they were picking us up at six and M fell asleep easily so I'm feeling better already. I'll use this rare opportunity of sharing the bed to get some cuddling time.

Cream cheese phone

Like every other toddler, M also likes to pick random objects up and use them as a phone. Her latest "phone" was a piece of toast with cream cheese. Cream cheese all over her hair and face, and all she has to say is "Hallo".

3 a.m. wake ups

I have such a thoughtful husband. He worries about me all the time. I was sleeping deeply when J woke me up in the middle of the night to ask me literally: “Are you OK?". I'll try to wake him up tonight at 3 a.m. to check if he might be hungry. That's love and commitment.

Strudel face

A nice game of M pointing at different parts of my face turned into a game where M puts bits of strudel on my face and laughs at me.
