Dede + Babanne + Patik




Devrim's dad --- Dede means "grandfather" in Turkish, Devrim's grandmother --- Babanne means "grandmother on father's side {baba "father" anne "mother, so combined you get the idea...}, and Grandma Schueller's handmade booties, or "patik" in Turkish.

Evren Toprak has three living great-grandmothers! Devrim's grandmother birthed 10 babies, and yesterday we were an attentive audience to the amazing stories of her life.
