The last day of the Olympics and I am tucked in my corner following the ladies 30km mass start classics. Our last chance on a medal this time.
We have managed to get a lot of medals this Olympics – some surprises and some expected. But we have also missed some of our chances to medal – our freestyle skiers (ski-cross) and snowboard (big-air) failed in their efforts, our cross country men didn’t manage to reach any medals (a lot of close ones) but my biggest disappointment was, of course, our hockey teams who both lost in their quarter finals. But over all we have done great! Go Sweden!!!

Happy birthday my dear son! Wish you a wonderful birthday and I hope you are able to enjoy it with your boarding friends in your school in Brussels. The flag is up (actually we haven’t taken it down since last weekend when you were here and we had your birthday party a week early) and the sun is shining. It is freezing -13C outside and our back yard is covered with snow. I hope you feel great and that maybe you were able to go out last night and have dinner in town. But, whatever you decided to do I hope you had a great time and that you feel good. I know you want to sleep in today so I will not wake you up just yet, but I might try to call you later. Love you!
