Boshra received the parcel of art materials and the Bee Book plus Arabic flash cards for Leen. She has been experimenting with the materials and feels this is reawakening her desire for art. I actually like the face she has sketched and would like to get some prints. She would also like some oils and canvas... But they are also in the turmoil of having another move. The place in Oostkamp is over now and they will move to Ostende on Tuesday or Wednesday when they get the keys.. We are hoping this is the last move for sometime for her to throw down some roots and the girls get their education at the local schools. I wish I could go over...as it happens there is travel chaos with the heatwave and storms. But I ache to get to see her and the girls to re-assess the situation and help out. I have missed out with her time in Liege and now in Oostkamp but thankfully we have had facebook contact and skype for me to keep the contact. We skyped in this heatwave and was laughing at the girls as they were down to nappy and knickers it was so hot... and me too trying hard to keep cool....
This weekend I am completing a Grant application so fingers crossed for this.... and I have had a very major contact in UAE that has given me his card to say - contact him to tell the story and what we need.. so I do hope we get some serious financial help for the Family Link Up project. Back over in Turkey Dante is going through problems on his journey of healing from the post traumatic stress he is going through. I wish I could help more. Financial dignity is key and being able to feel they can break free from the past pain and rebuild their lives. To have hope of reclaiming a future. All are keen to find a way to rebuild and to repay the kindness and care of the host countries by contributing to the host countries economy.... While I type this I have to say that I am so impressed with Razen our Yorkshire Syrian refugee... her cheese business is so great now that Morrisons supermarket is now stocking this. I would love Boshra and Razen to meet up as I am sure Boshra could help with marketing in Belgium. Yorkshire Dama Cheese
