A few days
ago Cyan turned 6 and as we are in the Netherlands there’s a lot on you to do
list.
Of course
the normal craziness with a cake, a kids party, a family&friends party and
of course not to forget: presents. But here there is also the unspoken rule of
bringing little gifts “traktacies” which
you give all your kids from your class and something little for all teachers.
This year we made some little paper cups with popcorn, winegums, chocolate
raisins and some salty cookies. Actually the idea is very nice – of giving a
little treat but when you have to prepare 27 of them and you’d be also…that’s a
lot of work then!! But happy us we were two people and also Ty and Nyra where
giving their best to help us. It was quite some work but in the end it was
worth it.
As his
birthday was on a Friday his 6 guests were picked up directly after school and
for me it was quite a sound intensity shock. Even if we have four kids here 6
boys (Cyan and Ty included) and one girl (the only girl Cyan invited) it was
never that loud. But well after some pancakes, cake and way to much sugar for
this kids full of energy Li and Chris went to an indoor playground with them which
was pretty relaxing for me but even more stressful for them. But in the end I
guess it was a nice birthday for Cyan.
Furthermore
I had a very good time at home with my family and friends. I enjoyed the time
there but it was also a good feeling to come back to my 2nd home.
Oh I also
went on a little ski trip with Daniel and some friends and luckily we also had
two days where we really could ski but also the other days were nice and filled
with playing games and having fun.
What really
made my heart smile was the kids hugging me and being really happy about me
being back.
So far to
this story… in my following post I will tell you about my weekend with Sandra,
going to a fish spa and our trip to Utrecht
Have a nice week and feel hugged ♥
