    Life comes full circle sometimes. It’s been five years since my mom moved into my house. How could I not? She cared for us all until we fledged so to speak and now she needs to return to the nest to be cared for.

      Yes indeed! I think it works both ways, and I am happy she wants to join us here. She’s really close so we can help when ever she needs it 🙏🏼😊

    Hey Goedenavond allemaal Guy Hadassa en Elly.
    Wat een ongelooflijk leuk filmpje we hebben ervan genoten.
    Elly Wij vinden dat je heel goed Engels praat.
    Guy super leuk om te zien hoe blij jij bent en hoe trots jij op je moeder bent. Ook heel zorgzaam voor de kat.
    Maar de reactie van Hadassa dat slaat alles..
    Ook super leuk wat je verteld van die mand met dat diner Ik zie het helemaal voor me.
    Nou we houden jullie in de gaten op deze manier de hele familie in Zweden veilig en wel aangekomen met alle stuff😂😂😂

      Soms nog een beetje onwennig voor haar denk ik, maar dat komt ook wel goed.
      Ja super toch dat ze nu in de buurt is 🥰
