We just came back from a two-week trip to Denmark and Norway. Lily experienced so many new things in those two weeks. I loved seeing it through a child's eyes.
A few recent highlights
While waiting for the aircraft to leave Kristiansand, there was a group of religious people. One of the men was wearing a black cloth tied in the back to cover his hair. She said, "Look Mommy A PIRATE!"
Then yesterday when we were waiting to board the plane in Copenhagen, there was a woman dressed in a beautiful rich purple "dress" with the top of her head covered in an ornate gold and black scarf. She said, "Look Mommy, A PRINCESS!"
Lastly, my favorite, and one where I am quite glad she said it in Spanish..was when we arrived in IAD there was another religious woman dressed from head to toe in black, with just a small slit for her eyes. She said, "Fantasma", which means ghost in Spanish!
While in Denmark we saw the Little Mermaid statue. Lily went to look into the water and said, "Hey Mommy...look, mermaids!"
