In memory for my daughter3rd Advent cold and windy.
Every year at the 2nd Sunday in December people put candles at 7 pm into the window for their passed away children.
In fact of the time zones a string of light is rising worldwide.
Wonderful tradition - but it´s always a day that make me sad. Especially sad, when there are men who downplay my sadness and didn´t understand the feeling of a mother no matter how long ago..

Father and sons put a new desk togetherAs wie stand up - we saw a little bit snow on the balcony. But it didn´t last long
My elder son had a appointment at the hairdresser in the morning (instead of a swimming competition). Afterwards we drove to Ik*ea where we bought a new desk for him.
In the afternoon we made a trip to our christmas market

Snow in the morning (picture 121209)Nothing special to report - no swimming training for my elder son because of his cold. No swimming training for my younger son because of a sport badge honor.

The angel and the light are so sweet, and it saddens me that some people doesn't let you mourn the way you want. Loss is so personal, and you have the right to remember and be sad about it for as long as you need. Hugs!
Such nice everyday pictures. The one with your son and husband putting together the desk is quite affectionate. And the bright oranges lighten the dark December day.
I wish I had an Ikea close to me!!!
wow, you won a laptop!!! that is so cool!! I am sure your son was just thrilled!
we love oranges too....I especially love chocolate oranges!
Merry Christmas!
oh!!! i was surprised to see my card! i am happy you received it already...got a little worried that it is lost in the mail.
you take care always...
Schwierig für mich etwas zu schreiben - dein erstes Foto erschüttert mich, ich hatte ja keine Ahnung. Lass´ dich einfach mal lieb drücken.
Ja, es ist kalt geworden in Deutschland und ich sehe auch den ersten puderigen Schnee da draussen und freue mich darüber. Ein Glühwein wird mich gleich von innen wärmen.
Besonders schön finde ich auch die Lichter, die dein kleiner Sohn gebastelt hat. Ich habe mal etwas ähnliches von dem meinigen geschenkt bekommen.
Nun wünsche ich dir noch einen schönen gemütlichen Abend und schicke dir viele liebe Grüße,
Kerstin
Tolle Bilder wieder, das bild von den Orangen kann man sogar fast riechen - lecker!
Willst du noch eine Karte für deine Sammlung, geschrieben ist es schon, es braucht nur noch eine Adresse ;o) Mail mir mal, oder schau bei goober rein, ich bin online!
Liebe Grüße

Nice laptop!
I think lighting the candle in memory of your daughter is a really nice tradition. I can't imagine losing a child, but my sister did and a Mom never forgets.
your son is lucky to get a laptop
Great! The first laptop for which son?
Thank you so much for the surprise. It means a lot to me.
Many hugs. Takinu

Love your little angel photo!!
Take care and take your time!!
Your photos of the candle lighting are so beautiful. I'm so sorry for the loss of your daughter long ago!
Beautiful photo in memory of your daughter.
I've tweaked a quote by Thomas Campbell (Hallowed Ground) that I like to keep in mind when remembering those that have left us too soon: "To live in our hearts that they leave behind, is not to die."
Take care.
