A Turmush correspondent spoke with her.
- Elizat Nurseitova was born on December 11, 1983, in the village of Uchkun in the Naryn district. After finishing high school, she received a pedagogical education at Naryn State University. Since 2010, she has been working as a primary school teacher at the Asanaly Abdrayimov Secondary School in the village of Ak-Kiya.
The mother of the triplets shared that she and her husband started their family according to the tradition of matchmaking.
“My husband Timur and I have been together for 23 years. We got married at the decision of our parents, following the tradition of ‘kudalyshuu’. Before the triplets were born, we had four daughters and a son. Three of them are students, and two are in school. With the birth of the triplets, we became parents of eight children,” Elizat said.
She noted that she was born on December 11, and her triplets were also born on December 11.
“The birth of the triplets was an unexpected gift for me. Before giving birth, we didn’t know we were having triplets. The most interesting thing is that I was born on December 11, 1983, and my triplets were also born on December 11. As a result, four of us share the same birthday. Life has many unexpected gifts. We are starting a new chapter in our lives with the hope that our children will grow up happy. I hope to share with you and others more interesting moments. At first, we didn’t want to publicize the birth of the triplets since they were in intensive care. We haven’t taken a photo together yet. We will stay in the city for a while until the newborns get stronger,” Elizat said.
She believes that simply choosing the profession of a teacher is already an achievement.
“My husband is engaged in animal husbandry and agriculture, while I have been working as a teacher for 15 years. Of these, I spent two years as the deputy director for educational work and one year as the deputy director for academic affairs. Recently, I worked as a regular primary school teacher and class supervisor. I believe that working in the teaching profession for 15 years is already an achievement. Among my awards, I only have a Certificate of Honor from the district education department,” Nurseitova noted.
Earlier, Turmush reported that the triplets consist of two girls and a boy. The names of the children are Tunuk, Sezim, and Aktilek.
Tunuk was born weighing 2 kilograms 400 grams, Sezim — 2 kilograms 400 grams, and Aktilek — 2 kilograms 500 grams.
