''When you were born I remember the chestnuts blooming outside''

One week ago I turned 24!

Birthdays are always such a strange day for me. I never

know how to feel. I feel sad, nostalgic, happy

and like a granny in the body

of a young woman all at once on this one day.

This year we didn't do anything special

beside making a waffle breakfast for

a few dear people and going on the first walk without a jacket.

I also received some lovely birthday mail from my

friends far away. We took them with us

to the park where I read the letters on a fallen tree and

had some fun taking pictures there while the chestnut trees

were blooming above us.

Every year my mom tells me how she saw these tall

trees blooming trough her hospital window

when I was born. Spring always was and still

is the season that is most dear to me.
