'And are we going to visit your gran too ? the kids asked me.

'Maybe, we also have to encounter with daddy's tour schedule, 'I said to them.

But one glance at him and I knew that we could visit her.

'Yeah, I can't see why we wouldn't pay her a visit? Cause we're going first to the Netherlands and then to Belgium, 'said Måns later on that evening.

The kids were busy with doing their homework and they looked kinda surprised when he said that.

Yeah, finally , cause they only saw her on a photo, but never in real life.

'Ok, but can I have your schedule, so then I can ask her when it's the easiest for her to visit. Cause we can't just barge into unexpected, 'I said to him.

'And why not? It looks like fun to do that , 'he said;

Yes, of course, but not according to my gran. And then you had the chance that she wouldn't be home.

He gave me that schedule and I called her right away. And of course she was thrilled to see me again. Cause the last time that we saw each other was when I was back in Belgium.

And of course I had a lot of pictures with me and she asked me how it is to live in Sweden now.

Once I showed her a picture of the northern lights and she was amazed by it.

'It's really beautiful, 'she once said.

'Well, that you have to come to Sweden, so then you can watch it in real life. Cause then it's even more beautiful, 'I said to her.

But I knew that she wouldn't, cause it was an exhausting journey for her. I told that so many times to Måns and his reaction was : 'Well maybe if someone would travel with her? And once they have landed, we can pick them up at the airport and bring them to their hotel or to our home.'

'Dad, why don't you ask it? Cause with mommy Belgium it works every time, 'said Sophie to him.

'Yes, that's true, but my grandmother is a little bit older then mommy Belgium, 'I said to her.

But then I thought, he can always try to ask her. But before we're going to Belgium, it was Spain, Italy, Greece, France and the Netherlands.

'So, plane or with the bus ?'asked Måns.

'If you don't mind, I'm going with the bus. Then has Kirstin some company while she's driving, 'I said.

'Ok, no problem at all, 'he said.

'Can we go with the plane , mum? Please, please, please, 'they both asked.

I looked at Måns and he shredded his shoulders.

'Ok, this I have to discuss with daddy, 'I said to them.

'To be honest, I don't see the problem why they won't be going with the plane. The boys are gonna fly too, so, our kids are not alone, 'he said.

'No, you're right. So, that's decided then. We with the bus. And our kids and the boys with the plane, 'I said.

Ok, but then we had to depart the next day, so that we would be arriving on the same day, in Spain, as the kids and the boys.

'Look, you're really sure that you're going with the bus too ?'I asked him later, when the kids were already went to bed.

'Yes, I'm sure. Otherwise I have to miss you too long, 'he said.

He and his charms, why is it so hard to resist ?

And we were just sitting on the couch, watching some television, when the doorbell ranged.
