As we are in full swing of back to school shopping for kids, we came across this old photo from when we first started doing this. who would have ever known then were life would have lead these two boys who we still have contact with..
It makes me think and wonder what the furure will hold for all the kids that we are helping out get ready for school this year .
Last week we got Kolya and Marat moved back to Bishkek and ready for school .. we took them out for a nice dinner with Bekah who is also going back to school .. this time as a teacher
One of our friends in Millbrook Ontario makes beautiful sweater sets for our kids .. Dustan loves his.
As we are rearranging things, we have sent a load of goats off to market. we still have 5 back at the main farm, but we are trying to make things a little easier for our workers at the ranch and the goats just don't like to behave them selves and tend to lead the sheep astray.
Nick said it was time to thin out the beats a bit. I thought that would leave us with a bunch of little beats, I said "don't through them out even though they are small, I can make pickled beats with them." I had to laugh when I saw the what hey came back in fro the field with .. We are going to have to get busy pickling.
We have had a lot of kids need help with back to school this year. We still have another 340 kids that could use help from two different orphanages .. that is almost $2000 so I have not even considered that at this time as we simply don't have the funds, but if someone out there wants to take that on we would be pleased to facilitate it .
