Nissemor / Nisse Mom

English below.

Nissemor har hovedet fuldt af ideer, munden fuld af ord, hjertet fuldt af folk, hænderne fulde af værktøj – og skabene fulde af sko, men det er en helt anden historie!

Hun er altid i gang med et eller andet, og hun sover næsten aldrig, for der er altid noget, som hun er færdig med lige om et øjeblik. Hun reparerer tøj og ting, der er i stykker, og hvis ingenting er i stykker, så laver hun noget nyt – og allerhelst af noget gammelt. Derfor har nisserne altid boet i et hus, som næsten er færdigt, men nu er de vant til at boremaskinen eller symaskinen altid snurrer. Det bedste er, når hun laver bitte, bitte små ting, for dem kan nisserne tit bruge, og så går Nissemor og leder efter dem, men det er hun vant til, for ting bliver altid væk for Nissemor. 

Men somme tider bliver der stille i huset, og så er det fordi Nissemor er på rejse.

Derfor taler Nissemor mange sprog, og hvis man holder hende for munden, så taler hun videre med hænderne, for hun kan også tegnsprog, og det er det fineste sprog i verden, for man kan tale meget hurtigere med hænderne!

De små nisser lytter og siger, at Nissemor har svar på alting, men så siger hun, at det havde hun engang – men nu har hun spørgsmål til alting.

NIsse Mom has her head full of ideas, her mouth full of words, her heart full of people, and hands full of tools – plus cupboards full of shoes, but that is a completely different story!

She is always busy with something, and she hardly ever sleeps, because there is always something she is just about to finish. She mends clothes and broken items, and if nothing is broken, she creates something new – preferably out of something old. That is why the nisser have always lived in a house that is almost finished, and they are used to the constant whirring of a drill or a sewing machine. Best of all is when she makes teeny tiny things – because often, the nisser put them to good use – and then Nisse Mom searches and searches for them. But she’s used to searching, because things always go missing around her.

But sometimes the house is silent, and that’s when Nisse Mom has gone traveling. h

NIsse Mom speaks many languages, and if you cover her mouth, she keeps talking with her hands, because she knows sign language, too. It is the finest language in the world, because you can speak so much faster with your hands!

The little nisser listen and say that Nisse Mom has an answer for everything, but she says that she once did, but now, she has a question for everything.
