I can't believe it. Siarhei is here—with me and our children. What we’ve dreamed of for 5 years has finally happened. Tonight, I’m taking the evening off to talk with my husband, to let him see his children again, after so many years. Thank you all for the tremendous support!❤️

HELP: Our friend Alec Luhn is currently missing while hiking in Norway's Folgefonna national park. If anyone has seen him please get in touch. If people in the area can share this please do Last seen July 31 after leaving Odda headed for Holmaskjer. Planned to go to Breidablikk
