Volamina, 2 years ago, III: her many children

Back row, left to right: the baby sister; the musician brother; the astrophysicist brother; the adopted brother and the little brother. The oldest brother had not yet arrived...

Front row, left to right: the third sister; the sister with whom I am closest in age and with whom I always shared a bedroom; the free-lance translator and world traveler sister and myself. 

This was dad's 80th birthday, and as usual he did not come well in the picture. But Mom did!
