Portrait - NOMINEE: Irina Khozhainova

My universe, my world, my cosmos, my chaos and my world, my hedgehog and my kitten ... He is 9 ... Son ... Now our relationship with him is like a crystal vessel for me. Transitional age will begin very soon. More and more he decides for himself, insists and proves.
He is brave, he is honest, he is incredibly kind.
He is small ... no, he is already big, and I need to take this into account. Learn to be friends, and not just be a mother.
