Come Let Us Adore Him

If it isn't his infinite patience, his freckled knuckles, or that sinister giggle when he beats you AGAIN at Connect Four (tm),

If it isn't the perfect shape of his head, the way he finds work for kids who tell him they really *really* need the money, or the loving tone of voice you hear when he's in the next room putting the baby to bed,

If it isn't that when he's talking to you you feel like the sun is suddenly a little brighter, that he strips down to his underwear to eat lunch, or that he can fix anything in the universe and somehow not make you feel like a moron because you can't,

Then maybe you are part of the Narne Fan Club because, at one point, he decided that a red leather tie was the perfect fashion choice for a portrait.


Happy birthday, John Arne. Tretti ni og sorgen fri!

Love,
Amanda
President, Earth Chapter
John Arne Løken Fan Club

Here are lifetime members, Rolf Even and Gyri, appreciating the genius of John Arne at a fan club gathering in Mysen this past summer.

And, trust me...

they know from fashion.

I wept a tear, what more is there to say... I think that is the most loving blog post ever. Gyri and Rolf Even - your photo is fansastic. Funny to see the two pictures next to each other to compare!

Ah, yes, I believe! From the first time I met the man who mended my child's heart and mind with his joy for living....the first time I talked to him and he looked straight into my heart with those deep eyes - yes, I became a member of the club and said, "This is a wonderfully amazing person!"

Happy Birthday, my son.

Amanda! This could possibly be the sweetest blogg-entry ever. Jonh Arne is one lucky norwegian in a red leather tie to have found you. Lots of love from all of us here in Stockholm. And happy birthday dear Lök!
