Bolivar cannot carry double

Do you remember when I was working with Pavlov I met with American named Karan in the subway?
On the November 4 th I was going to fly to Kherson. I transplanted on Newsy and suddenly a woman touched my arm, . Do you speak English? - she asked me.
- A little.- I answered
We took the train because we were on the way.  She was an American, and I will tell about her.
Ann Karen Young was American. She could not realize herself and the impossibility to find a well-paid job in the US, she has moved to Finland, and began working at the school for the little ones.
She received  Master of child-rearing system of Maria Montessori. The essence of a method of Italian Maria Montessori doctrine in the following. The brain of child is the most receptive any information at the aged 2 to 6 years. It is at this time, you can quite unobtrusively embedded in his head a bunch of useful information. You can say to a small child, what do we do, read or draw. The child will say, for example, to draw. He begins to draw. The time  to read comes  and you remind your child about it.
Having made his choice, the child reads. The child will  never think, that he dances to the tune of educators! The freedom intoxicates him and the results are simply amazing! I watched it by myself that the child of 5 years old, Belgian by birth, spoke with me only in Russian, with parents in French, but with my wife in English, because my wife was Miss Luda for him.
In short, in the subway, we met when I hurry up on the flight to Kherson
 Learning that my wife and mother a teachers of English, she offered to meet the next day. But the next day we would not met, because we met my friend Mike and his wife Larissa. My friend Misha was an officer of the Soviet Navy, we studied with him in the same school and even joined to the Pioneer organization.
 We met with Karen only the next day.
Then she come to Peter, almost every week on the week-ends and we with Luda showed her the city and in the evening just talking, and I taught her to drink vodka. It lasted for two years.
Once she asked me how I would have reacted to that, to open a school in St. Petersburg. I found it interesting, and I agreed to help. Work has begun to boil. I had to find a room for her school and the lawyer for clearance. The room I found easily and quickly - the former home of the pioneers on Shevchenko Street . It was opposite the house of my parents. The headteacher liked my idea, I made upon
her a very good impression and learn about my mother, and she agreed.
The lawyer was found quickly through my friends. The lawyer said that the joint venture can be opened only for two persons. Karen insisted only on herself and I would not wish to look intrusive and incredulous, and I myself begged that all legal issue only on Karen.
In this time Luda left school, because the costs was not recouped her energy there, and the salary did not correspond to her work.
At the very beginning, even before the opening of this school, I asked Karen about the opportunity to work in this school to my wife. And here she answered to me - "OK, I'll give your wife a chance to try to work with me!" I was very surprised.
She was rights it was impossible to do business with friends. But if you know the value of friendship that is not delve into who did more, and make it according the conscience, as under communism, it is possible. Although, perhaps, it is an utopia..
We celebrated my birthday with her. Igor (we flew on An-24 in Arhangel) came from Arkhangelsk and Igor with whom we flew in Pavlov' s crew. Of course, there were my parents. We hardly come in time. The suit of Karen was in the apartment of my parents.
 Karen was happy the next day. There is a school, there is also an accountant and a security guard there. We flew a little, and I asked her: I can do bookkeeping, only  3 baby!
Karen told me: "The accountant is the wall between me and the government, everything must be absolutely legal!"
- How much will you pay an accountant?
- 200.
- A security guard, and why is it needed?
- In America, so it is accepted, and  I will pay 150.
- And, Luda?
- 50.
- Per week?
- Yes!
- Then, I say, I will be the leader of a Trade Union/
- What for?
- That no one never said "Yankees, go home!"
- And for that, I'm going to pay you $ 500.
- Per  week.
- Yes!
And we laughed.
The school started work. Luda, having worked in the school, came home and constant calls had started. People wanted to know more about this unique "American Montessori International School". I have exchanged on the stock-exchange money for her at a very favorable rate, because I was well-trained on this kind of activity. Sometimes, Karen asked me to take her to the orphanage. She was very gracious. Mary Poppins!

Could you take the money from her? I also could not. I could not take the her money and to receive $ 50, doing nothing. Sometimes I had to collect the furniture, and to participate in the negotiations. At this time, Luda engaged with household chores. I told  to everyone that our American was not rich, and do not be greedy to her money. She brings us kindness.
A year had passed. The school already had 10 children. For this year, Karen pay off debt on the rent and began to give Luda money on taxis. It was cold to walk  Luda in agencies renew the visa and go to the firefighters and other agencies.
One bothered me much -Karen was not married
 and her age of 40 had already left the sweet name of the girl and  approaching to the spinster spoiled her character. She did not like the Russians  and that her bad taste, irritated me the first time.
At last  Wayne arrived from Los Angeles . He was not tall, about 50 years. Wayne worked with computer equipment and spare time was flying on a small plane and had spent in the air about 1000 hours!
When we said hello to him, his first question was - why we (Russians) first release landing gear, and then the flaps? (abroad, it is the other way around,  in truth, it is we do the opposite!)
I explained that tradition probably from the war, and came to us from the military aviation.
Then in 94, we  hoped that Karen and Wayne even married. They met for a
long time, and maybe do it now, but did not together.
I can write a lot about the school, which was opened by me, but I will not, because it was  written and  dedicated to my friends and  the Sky and her business, eventually turned into an ordinary making money and here already
nothing to do with Mary Poppins.
 I posted this just because it's a piece of my life, and this is also the action of 3 Newton's law.
My wife worked with her a few years before she understood that her words and deeds is not the same thing, and I understood it more later, because until recently, could not believe where the shoe pinches.
It happened in the summer of 2002 ...
