Baby Samantha!

A little over 24 hours ago, Jignesh and I became an Aunt and Uncle! While we already have 6 nieces and nephews on Jignesh's side of the family, this is the first on my side. My sister, Jennifer, and her husband, Brian, welcomed a healthy and absolutely adorable baby girl. I am incredibly happy for them and still cannot believe that my sister is now a Mom! While I love living overseas and experiencing all that Europe has to offer, it is times like these when I wish I was closer to family. While Jignesh is heading to Chicago next week to see his family (I am definitely jealous), I am not sure when I am going to be able to hop on a U.S bound flight. Hopefully, it will be sooner rather than later as I am anxious to meet my new niece and smother her with kisses. Congratulations Jen and Brian. I am sure that Samantha will bring you endless amounts of joy, laughter, and love!

I didn't get to see my niece until she was 8 months old when I lived in Hawaii-it's definitely hard sometimes to be far away from family.

She is so precious! I am sure you are bursting with pride and excitement in anticipation of getting to see her (along with the rest of the family). Hope you can get back to the States soon!
