During our life, we have at least one teacher that marks us for good. I've had teachers that liked what they did. And those who didn't. Those who would give bad marks so people would fear them and learn more. Those who weren't quite right in the head. Those I respected. Those I didn't. For... Continue Reading →
Life with kids who don’t stop talking
Nobody wants to play with me. That's how my son (3 years and 10 months) starts complaining out of the blue. With a sad face and tone. Except we've been playing with him all day long. He has all of our attention. And it's still not enough. For a split second, I wonder if he'd... Continue Reading →
I love everybody
"I love everybody". That's one of the things my kid told me yesterday. I know, kids say all kinds of "crazy" things. But this one caught my attention and I kind of paused whatever I was doing. Such a nice feeling that must be - I thought to myself. Later on, he said something similar.... Continue Reading →
I love you forever
That's how my son woke me up this morning. At 3 years and 8 months, he surprises me at every turn. He is in a phase where he just comes around and gives me hugs apparently for no reason. I think of him more and more as a kid and less as a baby. I... Continue Reading →
Why do kids grow up so fast?
My kid keeps on telling me he is 4 years old. Even if he's only 3 and 7 months. Slow down, buddy. I believe it's because he knows some toys are for older kids 4+. And he always wants new toys. Or it's his self-realization that he is growing up. He is not a little... Continue Reading →
Life with a 3-and-a-half-year-old kid
The time when we can talk with him (and find all kinds of stuff) has arrived. For us, it was somewhat unknown what he does every day at kindergarten. Sure we got many pictures and the teachers would tell us anything we asked and their schedule. But now we can find directly from our son... Continue Reading →
TEDx talks – Game changers
Last weekend I got to go to a TEDx show. My first TEDx talk live. There was a time when I was watching or listening to talks on YouTube all day long. But I had never participated in one in person before. The subject was Game changers and many people talked about their problems and... Continue Reading →
Movie Review: Love, Death & Robots
In a world of saturated Movies and Tv Shows its hard to find something that won't bore you. To death. Do you know the feeling when you find a gem? This is a whole bag of them. Of awesome short animations. To be honest the title didn't catch my attention. I must have scrolled past... Continue Reading →
Small kids small problems / Big kids big problems
Don't get me wrong, I love my son to the moon and back. But my posts are not all about rainbows and unicorns. I try to be more of an observer of how things really are behind the mirrors. My son is 3 and 5 months old and I feel like he is leveling up... Continue Reading →
Godfather
My time has come. I have added a new title to my name. Godfather. I know for many that's something ordinary. But there are others who don't want it. I was one of them. Being asked to be godparents for a wedding feels like a big responsibility to me. Besides that, you will be a... Continue Reading →
