One Giant Step For Mankind
We’ve just heard on the news that 18 countries will have their debts dropped. A total of $40bn will be simply forgotton by the IMF, the World Bank and the African Development Fund.
I wonder how Bono feels.
Freya’s Dictionary
Whilst there are doubtless many things we haven’t been able to translate, here is a list of Freya’s known words:
cat, Formula 1 car (bit like a cat), bird, duck (bird-like), cow, goat, pig, dog (birdish qualities), horse, fish (same as a kiss) and hand-mixer (very cat-like).
A few weeks ago she started to clap her hands and point to things, the latter lead to much repitition of things from our side: “lamp, lamp, lamp, butterfly, lamp, lamp” etc.
Up And At ‘Em
Jubilation! Freya has taken her first three steps today, albeit two of them whilst falling into Josefin’s lap.
A Taste For The Finer Things
Whilst marinated tofu seems to satiate Freya, yesterday she was completey taken by garlic and chilli Portabello mushrooms. Looks like I’ll have to watch more Jamie Oliver programs if this is the kind of food she wants.
