REALITY CHECK

Besides stunningly beautiful landscapes, cheerful kids, and sparkling Christmas trees, would you like to know what our life is like? Here is a reality check.

Sometimes we forget that while we might like snow and babies and babies in the snow ...
 ... they might not feel that way.
 Sometimes we just don't get the camera settings right for the good picture.
 Sometimes we watch the best parties only from far away. (Here: the Finnish Independence Day Festivities.)
 Sometimes our living room looks like a (cardboard) train went right though it.
 Or a train of some other kind.

 Sometimes our scheduling is so bad that our kids fall asleep while getting dressed.

 Sometimes we don't make it across the borders of our neighborhood for days.


 Sometimes we use a lot of glue and tape - for broken nativity figures, for example, or windows on the advent calendar that were opened prematurely by some impatient boy. 
And we love most of it - or we have learned to laugh about it! :-)
