It is the storey of a small orphaned girl. After loosing her parents, she went to live with her Uncle... he was a cruel man, and was not nice to her at all... he made her do very heavy chores all day and hardly gave her any food... One night late at night, she was on her long walk to fetch water, on her return she fell and spilled the water.... she was so week and tired... she did not have the strength to walk all the way back, and she was afraid of what her uncle was going to do to her if she returned home late with no water, so she turned to the disappearing Moon and said " please take me with you"... and that is why to this day if you look closely you can see "The Girl in the Moon"....<br /><br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8jo7h-SBSb6QPGlu8ang5MpdjHR4db3ha3Lg8bj1_TE_KOMLRtE0cle-AYywpVdaAzd5Z7KjkTzR_KPVy5OkXLF04wr4ZFZqnTxXRm6-ko-0JrjpQrxErQNo-J4WyetsVmZ4kL8QusNM/s1600-h/IMG_2373.jpg"><img style="WIDTH: 150px; HEIGHT: 200px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5434484568408553570" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8jo7h-SBSb6QPGlu8ang5MpdjHR4db3ha3Lg8bj1_TE_KOMLRtE0cle-AYywpVdaAzd5Z7KjkTzR_KPVy5OkXLF04wr4ZFZqnTxXRm6-ko-0JrjpQrxErQNo-J4WyetsVmZ4kL8QusNM/s200/IMG_2373.jpg" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghslPjG6bx5MzUjteNO7buuLcB6TS0SwbXS3IvbqXT1Y_Hr5vkapGh-qttX1eed_u_xuRGmfTRww3zqpnAoN0FfOTweppQUR8RSH18uyFp0DTelSANMSmOks6XhfL3_Yw3p4rLwoYgK7c/s1600-h/IMG_2374.jpg"><img style="WIDTH: 150px; HEIGHT: 200px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5434484570821332306" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghslPjG6bx5MzUjteNO7buuLcB6TS0SwbXS3IvbqXT1Y_Hr5vkapGh-qttX1eed_u_xuRGmfTRww3zqpnAoN0FfOTweppQUR8RSH18uyFp0DTelSANMSmOks6XhfL3_Yw3p4rLwoYgK7c/s200/IMG_2374.jpg" /></a><br /><br /></div><div align="center">5 1/4" diameter by 5 3/4 " high </div>Julie and John Wrighthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02496407132283564274noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7560317359384335754.post-18824259997084960182010-02-04T11:53:00.000-08:002010-02-04T12:13:11.230-08:00Katch-kor<div> This Ceramic Vase depicts the traditional storey of Katch-Kor ( <em>go away - snow</em> )</div><div> It is taken from a passed down story of a young man that went to a great and powerful Khan... he wanted to merry the Khans Daughter.

This young girl was brought to the orphanage when her parents were diagnosed with TB, and her father died... A year later, and Sophia and her brother are still undergoing regular treatments....<br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 383px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 282px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgd1yDlif2hznJBnyxz4rArbvSK_IXeTaPtg7PrCKiltuPkt16yLkTOzOOOz3Mrpjbvt8XR7wgZIQEq2QMT-f49yYpPhegsdOX3WNd_cKE8AjgtytQ-LnBrKkd1swT2wHCyqQ6rOKJAipLu/s200/CCE21062009_00000.jpg" />Julie and John Wrighthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02496407132283564274noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7560317359384335754.post-33851846317979216532009-07-02T15:06:00.000-07:002009-07-02T15:53:18.620-07:00John .... with some of his kids<div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRp_YTkVbIDCUT-jNIWTI2i5F2ts_npGzw3M_1sEumcGzv7ShYQ0MbSwbuGG2eOfuzC0Yda0DXcm9JrB4SG6VYFuIFt50LGWd7tORSN8xImhMNUC30YlNBp7mLP8yLm2TP8TZSOyd-91E/s1600-h/Picture_030.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5353988424344695074" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 150px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRp_YTkVbIDCUT-jNIWTI2i5F2ts_npGzw3M_1sEumcGzv7ShYQ0MbSwbuGG2eOfuzC0Yda0DXcm9JrB4SG6VYFuIFt50LGWd7tORSN8xImhMNUC30YlNBp7mLP8yLm2TP8TZSOyd-91E/s200/Picture_030.jpg" border="0" /></a> This photo is of Emma's father with a few of the kids from one of the orphanages he visits regularly...
