Twice I have been at the Royal Library in Copenhagen to scan the old catalogs from different Danish pram firms from the last century.

I found a beautiful short video with a father singing to his two months old daughter. It is clear to see that they are both deeply involved in their being together.

Trying to improve the posts have helped me not to regret too much what had happened to nearly 200 posts. During this time I have had the […]
