– summer started on the clock: as soon as the solstice was here, the skies became clear, the wind quieted down and temperatures rose above 25C. it’s been beach-weather everyday this week!

– the boy had his first vaccine, and i have mine scheduled for tomorrow. hurray!

– the parents have arrived, and we’re enjoying some days of their lovingly fussing. :) my mom brought her newest kitchen gadget along, and we’ve been having fun giving it a go with recipes that she’s a bit afraid of trying on her own.

– while taking the parents to the island earlier today, i forgot my phone in my pocket as i waded in the waist-deep water of the ria, and i think i might have accidentally drowned it… sigh. :(
