Woman's Best Friend

We started planning this year's Valentine's Day - in Finland it is called the Day of Friends. It is mostly celebrated here between women and of the friendship of women. We send each other lovely cards  and the most lucky ones have a cup of coffee together in-real-life...

                    Thank you that you are!

We decided at school that the pupils could make these cute teddy-bears to each other and together on Thursday afternoon. Hopefully it will guide thoughts to friendship and remind us all how nice it is to get together and do something together.

I think friendship between women is something amazing and one of the most important things that carry us through difficult times, losts and sorrows. I hope you have your own safety-net of women, too. I am very proud to be part of mine!

My girls and I will make a trip to Turku on 14th and visit a theatre called Linnateatteri. It is also the international V-Day and we get a chance to see a group of local women reading aloud Vagina Monologues and to listen to Veeti Kallio singing something beautiful to us. And to have a nice cup of coffee with cake just five of us - in-real-life!
