I’m in a slump. The words, they’ve forsaken me. As loathe as I am to post dull entries like this one, I’m afraid that if I go post-less much longer the situation will become dire, so my readers will have to bear with me.

Since I got home from Stockholm on Monday (where I laughed! and ate! and sang!), things have been pretty low-key. Olof did an admirable job of holding down the fort while I was away. Mostly I think he plied the kids with cheezy poofs and video games–he went so far as to buy a used Game Cube so that everyone would have his or her own console–but hey, you gotta go with what works, I always say. There was a marked lack of crying to be heard on the other end whenever we talked on the phone, so clearly he was doing something right.

I have little else to report just now, other than that I updated the kids’ picture pages last night. I’m not quite caught up, but, well, I’ve got a lot of kids and these things take time. Anyway, here they are: Petra, Tage, and Lydia. Enjoy!
