Those are good skills to learn. The schools in the US are turning their emphasis to science, math, and tests (which are certainly important) and neglecting life skills. Public speaking is useful in many occupations.

I'm a happy American, but I get frustrated with our school systems. They claim to want to ''catch up'' to foreign schools, but don't look to those schools for guidance and advice. Parents need to step in to fill in the gaps that used to be taught in school, but sadly, many won't. One of my sons is a teacher, so I hear a lot from him!
 
Yesterday we could read about a new interview Frederik has give to the Team Danmark magazine 'Pulse' by Politiken (one of our serious newspapers) released yesterday.
He talks in his role as IOC member and he tells about a number of Danish athletes among them Kevin Magnussen who Frederik (and many Danes) is very proud of. And he doesn't hide that it's a passion that has been passed down to prince Christian.

In an episode during the Olympics in London 2012 Christian was fortunate to get close to our handball player Mikkel Hansen.

- "He (Christian) is aware of the athletes and he is filled with excitement when he's in room with them. At the Olympics in London he sat next to Mikkel Hansen in the dining tent in the Olympic village. It was fantastic for me to see a seven-year old boy who was just totally impressed: Woow Dad, it's really Mikkel Hansen who sits there and here I am, a little boy and eating next to him."

You may well remember the picture of Christian acting Usian Bolt with his idol Mikkel Hansen for the Olympics in London :cool: http://a.bimg.dk/node-images/467/5/x2048-u/5467627-oly-2012-den-vip-royal.jpg

As we already have seen plenty of times all four of F&M's children show great interest in sport and to be physically active. Not surprisingly, with those parents.

Vincent is a wonderful mix, but Josephine is totally Mary IMO, the eyes, the smile..

Happy birthday to the twins! Those photos made my day, they are so cute in such a jaw dropping setting. I especially like the two of them together, planning their next adventure
 
The connection between these 2 is so obvious IMO. Happy Birthday to the twins! So cute.
 
Wonderful photos
even with their backs turn you can see the connection between the two

the laughter of Vincent

and a close up of Josephine

Im guessing her coat and the blue one of Vincent were gifts from Greenland
lovely to see some of the inside of the Danneborg
 
Vincent and Josephine are such cuties and they're so obviously very happy children. I can't believe they're 4 already. I swear it seems like they were just born a year ago.
 
What wonderful pictures of the twins. They´re both extremely charismatic and happy children. I can´t believe they are four already.
 
Lovely pictures of the twins. The photographer did a really good job IMO. The twins are growing fast, I can't believe they are 4 years old already, time flies.

I am surprised they choose pictures that are 6 months old, kids grown up very fast and would've expected some recently pictures nevertheless these are better than nothing.
 
Oh my word, these are adorable!

Also love Josephine's owl jumper, do you reckon they're available for kids aged 30?! :whistling:
 
Am I the only one, who see the resemblance between the sweater that Pss Josephine is wearing on the birthdayphotos and the one Pss Isabella wore on her birthdayphotos when she turned 5? :)
 
Christian, Isabella, Vincent and Josephine, News Part 2: January 2013 -

Such adorable and happy children! I will never forget when Mary's pregnancy with twins was announced. I was that excited. lol And now the twins are already four. Time flies indeed.

Indeed. It's impossible to choose a favorite of the new pictures, but I'm also a sucker of Franne Voigt's pictures of the children. She manages to capture their personality so well - Vincent the mild, Josephine the strong - and it only helps with a bunch of charming bubbly children as the twins.

However, I want to highlight this beautiful picture of Josephine. Such a picture I'm sure hangs on the wall home at the family.

They make beautiful children, F&M.

No you aren't, I noticed it too. It's the same blouse, but in a different color. Likely inherited from her older sister. The pants have also been Isabella's. We very often see V&J in inherited clothes from Christian and Isabella :)

:previous: Not only that, but I'm sure I have seen a picture of Christian wearing the same gray sweater that Isabella is pictured in. I wonder if Josephine's is the one with stars on the sleeves that we saw in the Greenland pictures. I think Mary dresses her children very nicely, and there's nothing wrong with reusing clothes from older siblings.
 
What lovely photos! However like dazzling I also would've liked to have seen new photos. It seems a bit repetitive since the photo for the family's Christmas card was of Greenland, too. Having said that, I did enjoy seeing photos of the Greenland trip and it's still nice to see more. My favourite photo is the last photo – Josephine looks very cosy and also rather festive in her coat. Her coat also looks quite thick which means it must have been very cold in Greenland.

Josephine melts my heart, and Vincent is also very sweet. I think Josephine looks more like Mary, whereas Vincent looks more like Frederik. He also reminds me a little of Christian at that age. Do we know where the indoor photos were taken? Was it where the family were staying or on the Dannebrog?
 
I dont mind that pictures were from the late Summer, at least they were new ones. And it was a really special trip, I want to see one of Isabella for her birthday. Plus we recently saw the twins in Christmas, they still look the same lol.

The pictures were really wonderful, you can tell some parts of their personalities.
Its great that they reuse some of the clothes from their siblings, very normal in my family. I will also like to point out that they have inherited Frederik's love for reddish pants : D

it was nice to see some of the inside of the Danneborg too

I totally agree. There´s absolutely nothing wrong with clothes that are inherited from the big siblings :)

Do we know where the indoor photos were taken? Was it where the family were staying or on the Dannebrog?
The indoor photos are from the inside of Dannebrog :)
 
:previous:

Yes. Then Frederik and Mary in 2006 visited the island Bornholm with the then eight months old Christian we got pictures from inside Dannebrog. The same place the new birthday pictures of V&J are taken:

And when Mary turned 40 year she released some of her own pictures she has taken. One of them was with the twins on Dannebrog during the summer cruise in 2011. And they sit there and clapping their small hands in the chair Vincent is photographed in at one of the new pictures:
https://fbcdn-sphotos-h-a.akamaihd...._=1429943880_359751947e5b46adf3575957fbb273ce

Believe me, those four children will come to know Dannebrog by heart...
F&M's last summer cruise visiting Danish port towns was in 2011 and IIRC F&M is on summer cruises in Denmark every four years so this summer may be the next time.. Think last years summer cruise in Greenland was 'extra' and don't count as such, but we'll see...
