Taking a bath
This morning my grandma came to give me a bath. It is not like mom and dad can’t do it. They are very good at giving me a bath. It is more like grandma wants to give me a bath.
She is working very hard at the moment, you see, because she says that in three months, when mom have to get back to work, she will stay home with me instead. So now she have to work a lot.
That means that when she is at home, she like to come and visit me. Just looking at me, or talking to me, is not enough for grandma. She needs to touch me too. So when she’s around, she does everything. Except giving me food. She doesn’t have any either.
Believe me, I have tried. She’s like my father. No food. Nothing.
But she likes to change my diapers. She tell dad to go and watch TV or relax or something. She will do the changing. Dad can do something else. That is what she says. My grandma.
My father says that she is not a grandma, not in his language. That swedish sound-thing I was talking about the other day. In that swedish thing, he says she is a mormor. In my mom’s language she is neither grandma nor mormor. Then she is a yaai, or something like that.
That’s fine with me. She can be whatever she wants to be, as long as she keeps the water out of my eyes when giving me a bath. I don’t like that, water in the eyes. But if there’s no water in my eyes, I really enjoy bathing. It feels good.
Today, apart from getting a bath from grandma/mormor/yaai, I went outside the house for the first time. Not really for the first time. I mean, I have been outside before. To the hospital.
Well, the hospital doesn’t count. That was where it all started. So I really didn’t go to the hospital. It’s more like I went from the hospital. Other than that trip from the hospital, I only have been outside my house. And walked between my house and my grandparents house. Our houses are next to eachother, so it really doesn’t count as going somewhere.
But today I went somewhere for the first time. I went to Central Department Store. That is actually not very far either. We live just behind it. But still, it is going somewhere.
Because at Central, there are people that I don’t know. Strangers. That is going somewhere. When you go somewhere where there are strangers.
But don’t ask me about it. How it was or something like that. I have no idea. You see, I was really tired. So, I didn’t see Central. I slept the whole time. But I heard that they bought an airconditioner. And a waterfilter. So soon we have it nice and cold in the bedroom at night, and we can drink the water from the tap. Before we stole our water from grandpa…
They also bought two new fans. I haven’t seen them yet, so I can’t tell you if they are any good. I’ll be back on that.
