Saw this on someone else's blog! (Actually it was Just Mom in her Musings) Not sure how true it is of me as a whole, but descriptive of my current mood & where I am at mo! Haha. The pictures were awesome in general, the pics you get to choose from that is. Do yours, and let me see what you came up with!

Koululaiset toivovat aikuisilta rajoja

Koululaiset toivovat, että aikuiset olisivat nykyistä kiinnostuneempia lasten elämästä ja asettaisivat enemmän rajoja. Tätä mieltä olivat lähes kaikki lapsiasiavaltuutetun uuteen selvitykseen osallistuneet peruskoululaiset. Lapset toivoivat myös viihtyisämpää kouluympäristöä sekä parempia liikunta- ja kirjastopalveluita vapaa-ajalle.
Selvitys pohjautuu 68 erikokoisen lapsiryhmän ryhmäkeskusteluihin.

From ESS

(For the English-speaking: Latest research/report tells us that school kids wish for adults to set more boundaries for them and to be more interested in their lives. Nearly all of the kids involved in the study,aged 7 to 16 yrs old, reported that!)

Perfect for sunday

Glad to be alive

Wow!

Lovely video. Check out the red shoes..!! And the lamp post, quite like Narnia, isn't it! Just watched it today. (for the first time)

I've got... Milk!

This is amazing, check it out - I've got my own milk!! Haha! Apparentily they have this brand of milk in Portugal. (Maybe this is my first of many. Keep following the life and adventures of mimou!)

They even have a website. It's pretty cool I think. Now I definitely know I should learn more portuguese! (it's a beautiful language, and one of those languages I've been wanting to learn). Lately I've been into following all these different lifestyle programmes..decorating & food ones, like Nigella's..& a nice Finnish one. Pretty enjoyable those. (Though nothing beats Jamie Oliver!) Also following a bit more some talk shows, and the politics, as we've got the parliamentary elections by the door (in March). Oh, while we are on that topic, check this out! Eero eduskuntaan! First person I actually know personally to run! Päivi Räsänen's page is pretty good too.. Anywhoo, I better hit the road as I'm already late for Jaakko's going away party. (He's moving to Barcelona, permanent job there! Woohoo, isn't that neat!!) I'm pretty happy for him for that new twist in his life! ..heh, while waiting for my own twists :-) Thanks be to Jaakko for that photograph too btw. Ok ,so must be off now. Bless you all! God be with You! May His Presence follow you all your days.. Much love, Mims as always. x

Very original, I know, I'm a natural talent you see. :-)

Called to be..the face of love

I posted a Sanctus Real video not so long ago (click that or scroll down:)) Was reading their website yesterday.

"We don't know what

Jesus really looked like,
but we can know
who Jesus is.

We can then discover
who we are in Christ and
hope beyond hope to become
the face of love to all
those around us."

"Uskovan elämässä ei ole sellaista kuolemaa, jota ei seuraisi ylösnousemus"

I've actually read (and have them) two books of the lives of two girls who were killed a the Columbine shooting in 1999. Both of them touched me, but especially this one .
