I gamle dage / Back in the days

I forgårs skrev min ældste niece for at høre om jeg havde et billede af min poster med hæklet kant. Da jeg kom hjem gik jeg i gang med at lede. Det var ikke nemt! Men jeg endte med at finde min backup disk med gamle billeder og ud over min poster fandt jeg også nogle gamle billeder af min søsters børn. Altså - HVOR søde var de lige? 

Jeg fik så tit lov at låne dem da de var små, og jeg er så glad for at jeg havde tid til det. Alle de gange de har været med toget op til min mor og vi har læst Peter Pedal i toget. Man kunne sagtens nå at læse nogle stykker på vej til Hillerød! 

Nu er de voksne. Min niece ønsker sig IKKE flere strikkede Manchester United sweatre. (Men et eller andet strikket ønsker de sig jo nok....)

Jeg synes jeg har været utroligt heldig med børn, selv om jeg ikke selv har fået nogle!

The day before yesterday, my oldest niece wrote and asked if I had a picture of my poster with a crochet border? When I got home, I started looking. It wasn't easy! But I ended up finding my backup disk with old photos, and beside my poster I also found some old photos of my sisters kids. 

Seriously - HOW cute were they?

Every so often I got to borrow them when they were small, and I'm so happy I had the time. All those times we took the train to my mom and we read Curious George on the train. We could easily read a few books going to Hillerød!

So now they are adult. My niece does NOT want any more knitted Manchester United sweaters. (But I guess they all want something that I knit....)

I do think I have been very lucky concerning children, now that I never had my own!
