Clowning around at Sashleke! |
One little one that loves here picture taken – and she is so cute! |
Slavik is a dear one! |
Jonabek is an amazing kind and sweet boy. |
Vika is so smart – learning Chinese, how to cook and even do nails! |
Altanye is quiet – yet kind and ever so helpful! |
Dasha is such a calm child – has traveled many miles to come to a smile like this! Healing her little heart – one day at a time. |
Well, the Sashleke pose by mom! Just gotta do this and get this picture. |
Then Slavik did the pose! |
Jonabek has been moms most frequent companion for sewing – seems he has really taken to mom – and he says clearly – this is MY GRANDMA! |
Costa spends lots of wonderful moments with the boys. Here Aziz, Omerbeck and Costa are in serious conversation. |
Vika and Zukrah – love that our kids have such a good relationship with all the team. |
SHARON, this one is yours – made especially for you by Jonabeck! |
These were all made by Omerbeck and are for sale. He has made four. They are pillow covers with a zipper side! |
