In December last year,
our nextdoor neighbour Britta
walked out of her apartment.

Yesterday we got new neighbours!
Selma has lived her last twenty years
in Karlstad,
the town where I lived
my first twenty years.
Selmas first twenty years she lived in Turkey.

I had wished so for a family
to move in next to us,
that had little children
suitable for Noak to play with.
I had wished so for kind folks...

Guess what!
Selma has a little boy - just like Noak!
His name is Nilam.

It will be so exciting getting to know the two!
