The boy in the female kingdom
Last weekend, the founder and producer of the art groups "Turetsky Choir" and "SOPRANO Turetsky" Mikhail, together with his family, celebrated the birthday of his long-awaited grandson Vanechka - he turned one year old.

Two vehicles at once - a car andbicycle. True, they are still the size of Vanya. They noted a narrow family circle in the restaurant, which is just on the way to the hospital, where Natasha gave birth. Such a symbolism! With the choice of the name of the baby, it seems, is also connected with an interesting story?Natasha gave birth at midnight on Epiphany.The baptism, the story of John the Baptist – everything was connected. Here, chance itself dictated to name the baby Ivan. Moreover, we did not even attach any significance to it at first, only with time we realized that the grandson’s first and last name is Ivan Gilevich, the combination turned out to be very consonant with “Gospel”. Of course, I wanted my grandson to be named Boris – in honor of my father… But matchmaker Zoya Ivanovna, looking at the little blond with blue eyes, finally convinced me to name the baby Ivan. I sincerely believe that Ivan is a special child, he has the stamp of the chosen one. I believe that an unusual fate awaits him. However, I cannot say with 100% certainty that Vanechka will continue my work.

That’s why for the first 2–3 months after Vanechka was born I would take him in my arms and say: “My girl!” Then I think: “What am I telling him?! You can’t do that!” (Laughs.) How are you raising your grandson?While I have a contemplative observant position,I enjoy communicating with the child. Planned education of Ivan, of course, involved his parents. I believe that they have the right approach. Natasha (the eldest daughter of Turkish. - Comm. Woman’s Day) is a very attentive mother, she always tries to learn something new in this area, she constantly reads special literature for parents. Dima, as a father, cultivates both the necessary measure of romanticism and the model of a strong man in Vanya. After all, he himself has it - in the past Dima was fond of football for a long time, now he plays the drums. A man must be a romantic. Well, this is my understanding. Worse, when he is a pragmatist ...
