The Kotlas Baby House Turns 25.

The Kotlas orphanage opened on January 26, 1988, 25 years ago.  (Interestingly, January 26th is also Elena's birthday).  Here's an article  on the anniversary (English translation) from the Kotlas daily newspaper.  It gives a little history on the building itself, and the staff, and particularly the director who spearheaded the construction of the building.

These are the kind of exercises Elena would have done.
