One of the advantages of having parents of different nationalities is that you get all the goodies and customs from both sides. Well, actually there’s not much from the British side as we don’t seem to have any real special days or events for children but at least I get the advantages of having a German Mama.

In Germany it is children’s day today where it is customary to spoil the little ones in you life. Mama is off in the kitchen baking me yummy fairy cakes, already been plied with chocolate and generally getting even more attention than normal. I’m happy.
