Leukadija- we used to call her KADE

So here it goes. 
I always wandered why Kade was kike a part of the family. When my Mother finished the Girls Bording school in Liepaja, Latvia- she went to St Petersburg to the University, Must have been like 11915  or so,. While she was there, the Russian Revolusion started. But that is again another story. In 1918 lithuania became Independent  but it took her 2 years to come home through poland and other countries 
 When she arrived  home, BEBRUNGAS country estate, she found her parents and a little boy IGNAS, who was like 10 years old and she was told, that he was he brother! I realy dio not know when she found out that he was Leukadijos Stonaites and her fathers, Vaclovas Prialgauskas son!. Leukadija was a made in that family, very prity, young- the rest is history! 
 Most amazing thing that my Grandmother adopted the boy and kept Leukadija in the house and when my Mother got married- Leukadija became her house keeper. And she was like the member of our family.  So this is the story I wanted to finish!
