Meet my new sister Baiba

My parents hosted a Latvian woman for the weekend as part of a Rotary Exchange. I don't know whether it was all the vodka but I think my mother may love her more than my sisters + I. She was very upset when she left (and even mentioned moving to Latvia!). I'm sorry I didn't get to meet her. Although I can't deal with another heartbreak after my childhood memory of finding three adorable baby huskies on the woodpile out back and having them for a weekend only to find their real owners. Sad.

Bon voyage and safe travels, Baiba!
