Tuesday we celebrated the birthday’s of children in the local “Organization for Families with Invalid Children” or as we prefer to call “The Day of the Angel”! This is sponsored by the Rotary Clubs of Brockville. It is a fun party with lots of games and participation by the Canadians.

The party this year was Harry Potter themed,

here are the children going through platform 9-3/4.

There was even a sorting hat to place them on teams.

Wonderful interaction between the children, the Canadians and even our drivers and interpreters joined in.

We were entertained with beautiful singing by two girls.

Some of the Canadians with drivers and interpreters.

Andrei with Sasha Krasakov who many Canadians know as he came to Canada over 10 years ago for treatment for Brittle Bone Disease and has lived fracture free ever since.

Half of the children received birthday presents, the other half will receive theirs in the fall.

Here Bill Maxwell accepts a gift on behalf of the Rotary Club.

Another wonderful party and time spent with these beautiful children.
