Straight from the washing machine this morning: Krijns shirt (the last of the eight he made filthy yesterday) and my running sock (i don't make them filthy as often as i used to).
Harm Paas, network administrator at the Institute of Math and Computer Science from my university, predicted Krijn is gonna beat me at the age of fourteen.
"Objection, your honour!"
He should beat me before he is twelve.
Hit the road, Krijn.

Say dear Jos, what if... Krijn beats you at Ballet at the age of 12, wants to join the circus at the age of 13 (telling u so with his backpack packed) and retuns at the age of 16 with long hair and a big tattoo of AC/DC across his chest. Will you be listening to what he has to say about worldpolitics?
It is fun to see your blog and read all the nice, charming, fascinating and touching stories.
Because i am quite serious at most things, i will try to answer your questions as good as possible:
1. "What if... Krijn beats you at Ballet at the age of 12?"
Ha! He beats me at it at the age of 5 days. He is really a devil with his acrobatic arms, legs and backbone.
2. "What if...he wants to join the circus at the age of thirteen?" I can pass that one to his mum, former public prosecuter for youth, knowing that our law requires obligatory education until the age of 16. (Pff.) Unpack your rucksack, Krijnyboy!
3. "...long hair..." If he is not as grey as i am: cute enough.
4. "...and a big tattoo of AC/DC across his chest?" Uhm...is it a rewashable one?
5. "Will you be listening to what he has to say about worldpolitics?" I always listen to anybody who bothers to have an opinion on world politics. I truly hope my son will not be en exception.
