My baby, Samantha, and I live in Cairo, Egypt, where she was born.  She'll be 6 on September 1st.  The streets are not safe for her, so she gets her exercise at home and at day care and is trained to use my bathroom.  Her best friend is a Labrador who lives across the street and down one balcony.  She also sees him at day care.  Supervised, of course.  After all, she's a girl and he's a boy and this IS Egypt! 
 
 
She hates cameras and won't sit still for a formal portrait, but I have attached one picture I took a few years ago when she was thinking of opera as a career!
