This year, in combination with the DSDS finale I stayed at my Mom’s house overnight. Sunday morning my little sister woke me up (ah, not enough sleep) and we prepared a Mother’s Day breakfast. It was so hot, really like a summer’s day, so we were able to prepare the table on the patio.
Just recently I bought an iPod Touch 2G and with it I’m able to use the W-LAN internet at my mom’s house…so my sister and I sat outside with the iPod and watching videos on youtube on how to fold napkins…isn’t this crazy? I mean, doing something old-fashioned like folding napkins to roses, but watch the instructions on a little black Wi-Fi gadget. I love living in this times where old and new can be connected in such a cool and useful way!

After a long breakfast we went to a nearby fleamarket and shortly after it was time for our guests to arrive (my grandma, aunt and cousin). We had a wonderful day on the patio and in the garden, like I said it felt like midsummer! We had fresh strawberry cake and a barbecue in the evening. I was ablte to simply sit in a chair and read a book (I would have never believed those simple things can feel so important and relaxing).

I really enjoyed that day and hope my Mom was happy to have all her children around. It’s not that often at the moment that I can go and see her…I don’t have a car and the train round-trip ticket is 14,00€. So each time I want to see her I have to pay 14,00€ though it’s not that far, can you believe that? I love my Mom and I miss her so much!

Alles Liebe,
