Pa, Gabriela!


Gabriela's departure was last, and certainly the strangest. I don't think we can share all the details, but let's just say it was a quick goodbye, and a bit of a surprise arrival for her family. Dan, Ramona, Nicoletta, and Milica drove her home. Her village was supposed to be about half an hour away, but it ended up taking them almost three hours to find it! Apparently Gabi liked the car ride though, and cuddled with Milica. Once they got there they found the mom, along with Gabi's twin Mihaela, and not one, but TWO other kids under age five! The kids were having fun, and the oldest claimed she was in kindergarten, but we aren't positive. Apparently Mihaela had lost some weight, but looked good. The family is very poor, and their house was not great, but the kids seemed happy, so that's a good sign!
