Becoming a swedish citizen again

I am sooo glad Erik, or It, as Mina calls him was around today to help out while I spent all day becoming a swedish citizen again. According to Skatteverket I only immigrated to England in 2001 which means I have only lived abroad for 8yrs not 12 as I have been telling people.
Its so easy being out with a child here - everywhere has a kids corner or buggy access ramps, lifts or buttons that opens the door for you! I could have done this on my own (but I am so glad I didn't). Thank you Erik, you've been a star. Beers are on me. After the 6th of course ;-)

Mina completing a jigsaw with 22 pieces almost all by her self in the kids section in Bokia bookshop . Lego has been the hero of today as this has occupied both Mina and Erik.
