Irrelevant Information for Relevant People

We have now been in Miri a little bit over two weeks and we are still having that vacation feeling. But more on that later. Let me first give a quick recap of what has happened in the weeks since our last update.

Mom and the kitties left on Wednesday the 14th as planned and the same day the movers came to start packing up everything in the house. The three of us moved into a hotel in the Hague such that we did not have to live among the boxes. Sebastian took all of this remarkably well. On Friday the movers came and picked up everything and managed to stuff all our belongings in a 20 foot container. This was quite surprising as the initial assessment estimated that we were 3 cubic meters over. On Friday evening we ended up watching Holland play their world cup match against Ivory Coast in the lobby of the hotel together with our neighbor Rutger and his girlfriend. Sebastian was showing very clear signs of early manhood since he just did not know where to focus his attention. His eyes kept moving from the beers on the table (mind you, only the full glasses), to the soccer on tv, and the girl sitting next to him. I’m not going to have to teach this boy anything.

Dag allerliefste knuffel van me,

Vandaag hebben we voor het eerst echt samen kunnen kroelen, en oh wat was dat heerlijk! Je bent zo lekker zacht en warm en je hebt gezellig tegen me aan liggen knorren, heb weer echt van je genoten. Zondag kom ik weer naar je toe en ik hoop dat opa en oma mij dan ook nog even met je laten kroelen, want we zijn nu al om je aandacht aan het vechten. Tante tini is helaas niet zo’n schrijver, vind het leuker om live tegen je aan te kletsen, dus vandaar dat dit een kort berichtje is. wil ik toch nog afsluiten met je te zeggen dat ik zo ontzettend trots op je ben, je bent een echte tijger, maar met zo’n superouders kan dat natuurlijk ook niet anders!!!!

Heel veel liefs en tot zondag, dikke zoen tante Tini

Hello dearest cuddlebear of mine,

Today was the first time we got to cuddle up together, and it was wonderful! You are so nice and soft and warm and you lay very cozily up against me. I’ve really enjoyed you. On sunday I’ll come and see you again and I hope that opa and oma will give me some cuddle time with you as well, because we are already vying for your attention. Tante Tini is unfortunately not much of a writer, I enjoy chatting live with you much more, so that is why this is such a short note. I want to finish by letting you know that I’m extremely proud of you, you’re a real tiger, but with such super parents that is of course no surprise!!!!

Lots of love and see you sunday, big kiss

Tante Tini.
