This is a nice award from them. We're helping each other, but there's nothing to it. We take it quite naturally
In the car, we scan the nomination letter and walk to the primary school in Bezrukova Street. Cats are heating up under the tree, birds are chirping on the tree.
In the canteen of elementary school, children go round. Hundreds of them turn around every day. Plan, buy, normalize, cook, feed and finally wash dishes, kitchen and dining room. Every day’s routine, but a lot of work. Whoever holds the reins of this colossus can not be a pussy. And, indeed, in the office of the head of the school dining room sits an energetic lady in the best years.
They’ll look us over and shake our hand with a tight grip. Lunch is in full swing, so there’s no time for long talk. We can get some photos, and Mrs. Natalia knows where to send us next.
He hardly talks about himself. She does not consider helping her neighbors to save lunch to be a topic worthy of special attention. He spends all his time talking about a friend he wants to appreciate for her exceptional dedication and heroism in raising six children, of whom only two are her own.
