C: "My mother is very much into her work. I can sense she's really enthusiastic."
J: (Her work) "Means a lot to her. I think she... yes."
I: "Then she goes into her room and sit there with her computer. Or go into the living room, with the TV running and just beaver away."
V: "I've sometimes gone into her office and then she's been sitting there... totally concentrated."
C: "After we have been eating, she has sat down at the coffee table and pulled out the computer to have a look. And go through it again."
I: "It has to be done thoroughly. It has to be totally perfect."
C: "If she's been on a trip, she comes home and talk about what she has seen, what she has been doing and where she's been."
V: "Sometimes, if she goes to sorta Africa, she tells a little about the schools, how it is, how the children are doing."
C: "And that gives the four of us a look into, how well off we for example are here in Denmark."
I: "She has an Australian accent, so there are some words she says a bit funny."
J: "No, it's Å. Then it's aw, aw."
V: "She says lille (little) like lilla, in a way. She can't say like æble (apple) either."
C: Sometimes she want's to say: Is the dog lying in it's basket? Then it always becomes: Is the dog lying in it's bwasket?"
V: "And then she tries to pronounce it again, but it isn't right even though we tell her how to pronounce it."
I: "And then the whole family tease her, that she can't say it right. Where she says herself, no, no, no, I'm saying it right."
Two more videos to go.
C: "I admire mother the most for, for what's she is doing and for what she is doing for others. And for us.
J: "She gives us a lot of love."
I: "She's good at talking about things.
J: "Sometimes if we are a little mad at each other, she can help us."
V: "You can tell her about secrets you have."
I: "If you have problems with something. If it's been a hard day at school. Then she's always good at talking it through."
C: "You should never ever give up. You always have to keep on and keep on and keep on, at some point, you'll get through."
V: "If you say something about yourself, she says: It doesn't matter. Don't think about it. It's so lovely as you are." (You are lovely as you are).
I: The best thing about mother, I have to say, is the (good) company you have when we are together. She always has something to talk about.
J: "Mother is good at singing, I think. She is good at singing something from... a little old-fashioned. If you can say so."
V: "I think she's very good at dancing, when there is a party."
J: "At parties she's very... kinda... dance-like with the young."
C: "She's especially fond of the air-guitar if rock-music is played."
I: "She's good at playing the drums. If there is a drum lying around somewhere, she had to beat it. Going at it."
V: She says she's old. She isn't."
- There is a general consensus among the comments I have seen today that Vincent's last remark was a winner!
I hope it makes sense, because I tried to translate as close to how the children spoke.

let’s hope there will be no COVID restrictions and we can enjoy the celebration at full!
They always end those videos with Vincent, he is really one of a kind
