For the third time this year, Frida and I are left alone for a week. While Frida was talking to her dad on Skype today I showed her the picture below so it would be more clear to her who she was talking to. Or, rather, her dad was talking to her, she mostly pointed at the laptop screen!
I showed her this picture because it was the first one I found, but I didn’t find it very interesting. The more I looked at the picture, however, the more it grew on me. I like the way they both look at whatever he’s pointing at. Also, I like how it reminds me of the birthday party we were at, how he carried her in his arms most of the time because she was lost in a room full of people and because she wasn’t feeling very well (she became sick the following day). Also, the way that she holds her fingers against the back of her ear is something she does from time to time. The expression on her face is a typical mixture of curiosity and skepticism, pointing at whatever her dad’s showing her. And finally, you can see how much they still look alike!
The following picture from the same party has some of the same “I feel lost among all these people, save me”-feeling.
