Baby Eva is the latest addition to the Latvala family.   I think she is a beauty!    

“Odin” is generally accepted as the modern English form of the name, although, in some cases, older forms may be used or preferred. His name is related to ōðr, meaning “fury, excitation,” besides “mind,” or “poetry.” His role, like that of many of the Norse gods, is complex. Odin is a principal member of the Æsir (the major group of the Norse pantheon) and is associated with war, battle, victory and death, but also wisdom, Shamanism, magic, poetry, prophecy, and the hunt. Odin has many sons, the most famous of whom is the thunder god Thor. Wednesday is the unified form of Woden’s day as most days of the week are named for Germanic gods.

Today being Thursday we celebrate Thor, Wotan’s son.   Also I believe that I was born on a Thursday and therefore am Thursdays child.   I think that means that I have far to go.  It feels like that sometimes.

Today is New mOOn in Cancer.   In honor of the day I will honor 2 of my favorite moon children.

Sunday is the day I most often visit my granddaughter Sydney.   today is special since we will celebrate her 2nd birthday.   Good times!   Happy Birthday Sweet Sydney!    

Sydney is 2 years old today and I got her a pair of sheepskin slippers like her mother has.   I also got a tiny pair of pink deerskin slippers for the new granddaughter who is coming soon.   I couldn’t believe how tiny they look.   More about Sydney will follow.
