I finally finished it! The baby blanket is READY! It actually was completed surprisingly fast, considering that I haven’t had too much time to knit it. I have had so much school work, that I’ve been able to knit only occasionally. Now the blanket has already ended to its owner, whose Sanna’s and Jussi’s little girl. Sanna went to labour at 27th of May and gave birth to beautiful little girl (weight 3605g, height 50cm).

Here are some pictures of my creation. Unfortunately I don’t have any pictures of Sanna’s and Jussi’s creation… :)

Last Thursday I had my 26th birthday and I had a blast! :) On Wednesday I had some problems at school, such as: I lost my notebook that consisted information from all the courses I’m having right now. Somehow, on Thursday morning I woke up at 4:30, and I couldn’t get any sleep after that! I was so puzzled about all the schoolwork. I was really surprised when my cell was ringing at six a clock! When I saw that it was Linda, I wasn’t so amazed anymore. Linda wakes up very early every morning and she knows that I’m usually awake at six a clock as well. “Happy birthday!”, she said to me. Then she asked what I was doing. I told her I was eating morning porridge like every morning. “Okay”, she said. “Could you come and open the door for us?” I was so amazed! There they were behind the door with Hannu, at six a clock in the morning! Crazy, but lovely people! :) They brought me just baked French breads, ice cream cake and some beautiful yellow tulips. What a wonderful way to start a birthday morning.

The whole day was just wonderful. Only downside (and that was just a little, little part of the day) was that Tuomo didn’t remember my birthday! He felt really bad for it, but it’s true that all of us make some mistakes at some times. Or forget some things. That’s natural and only life.
