On the morning of March 30, Queen Maxima paid an online working visit to My Second Family (Mijn Tweede Familie). Mijn Tweede Familie works to link unaccompanied minor refugees to a family. Mijn Tweede Familie is the initiative of Sovee, a welfare organization in Utrecht and Gelderland which works for children and young people. Mijn Tweede Familie won an Appeltje van Oranje award last year.
During the online visit, Queen Maxima spoke with Sovee employees, a researcher and various families and refugees. Among other things, the young people spoke about their start in the family, what they are learning and how important a second family is to them, in the absence of their own family in the Netherlands. Families shared what motivates them to take in a new "family member" and what it means for their family.

DeleteLili, what do you mean?
DeleteThis is a fashion site Lily, but if you want to say something else be accurate. There is too many fake news already. These are probably French Nikè candles (empire), gold plated with figures made of ebonized bronze

Queen Maxima looks lovely in beige color very fresh .
ReplyDeleteBlouse looks nice. Hair looks horrid, she forgot her brush and self-respect in looking like a queen. Uri
ReplyDeleteAnd this you meaning of not being mean and rude? Jade
DeleteFor once something not overdone but simple and nice!(even without jewelry)
ReplyDeleteJudy
Agree. But the hair could be a teensy tiny bit better
DeleteMême si je trouve cette couleur coquille d’œuf exquise, Maxima nous a habitués à beaucoup mieux surtout qu'en ce début de printemps, des couleurs lumineuses continueraient à la mettre en valeur ; elle est bien belle quand-même - Qui pourrait-dire le style du meuble que nous voyons régulièrement derrière elle ? Dans mon salon, il serait parfait ; je peux rêver même s'il ne doit pas être dans mes moyens !!
ReplyDeleteLovely look from The Queen. I like her beige blouse and even her hair look better than usual. Also good backround and position for the camera 👍
ReplyDeleteKarin
Indeed.
DeleteHer top/blouse looks nice.
ReplyDeleteHowever I think she looks exhausted or perhaps sick and has dragged herself out of bed in order not to disappoint by missing the meeting.
Why she so neglects her hair is beyond me.
ReplyDeleteDear Lili, I will not be replying to you in German so that all readers can appreciate my remarks. Your comment is incredible. The chest of drawers in the background is a superb specimin from the Napleonic period, i.e. around 1810, perhaps slightly later, and I presume that these are “matching” candlesticks. The concept of racisim might be applied to modern art by certain quarters but certainly not to works of art of the period mentioned above. Instead of offering foolish comments, why not admire the exquisite craftsmanship instead????

Thank you Virginia.
DeleteMit der Handwerkskunst haben sie auf jeden Fall
ReplyDeleterecht .
Aber nur , weil etwas wunderschön ist finde ich
das es eine Zeit repräsentiert , wo eben " Schwarze"
Sklaven waren. Mich hat das eben nachdenklich
gemacht und ich wollte wissen ,ob andere Leser
auch darüber nachdenken.

With the craftsmanship they definitely have
ReplyDeleteLaw .
But only because something is beautiful, I think
that it represents a time when "blacks"
Were slaves. That just made me think
made and I wanted to know if other readers
also think about it.
Virginia 31/3/21 15:21
In that time white people were also made slaves,
DeleteWe cannot make history undone, so stop your nonsense!
@Lili from Lily T. Stop this nonsense. We are aware now of your political correctness and your holier-than -the -popeness, as we say in Dutch.
Deleteokay i understand i won't say another word about this matter
