Norway

Isn't the killings in Norway horrific.

What can lead a person to do that?

I hope when he goes to trial that the put him away for a long long time.

But it is something like this that makes you think about your family and how much you love them.

I got a bit upset the other night when I heard about this as my real father was born in Norway and came to Australia on the ships when he
was young.

While we were growing up we saw photos of my grandparents and aunty's and received the occasional letter or postcard and presents from them.

But they were strangers to us,I couldn't even tell you their christian names but I can still see their
faces from the photos we have.

I still have all of my cards and bits = although I can't understand them as they are written in Norwegian,I even still have a wedding card that  my grandparents  sent me when I married my first husband and that was 31 years ago.

Thing is we lost touch,

One of my sisters went to Norway and saw everyone but that was a few years ago,

I just pray to God that they are all safe as are the others now and I am thinking of them.



This is the national flower of Norway;
