Today was the first day in a year when three of our kids were on campus AT THE SAME TIME!!! It’s been a hard year, but a special one too. To my kids, I know the house is a mess, and you missed your friends. I know it was a year of not eating out or going on epic vacations. I know our Shabbat dinner table felt empty compared to other years. But we got to have lunch together everyday. We learned to ride bikes and take walks. We read books and worked on projects. We built cardboard forts and drew murals in the driveway. As hard as it was, everyday was a gift of being together. And even as we all need to stay vigilant and continue to do the right thing, today is a new day for our family. Thank you to the @vbsdayschool team and the @valleybethshalom community for all the hard work making sure our kids are safe and healthy!
I was never sure I’d make it here. I always had confidence, but never assurance. It’s been just about a year since I went into quarantine. Today I carry with me in my thoughts all those who couldn’t get this far. I wish so very badly you could be here. I have so much gratitude for the scientists, medical workers, grocery workers, teachers, parents, children and anyone who has stepped up to make life as livable as possible. And most of all, I thank my Creator for imbuing knowledge into the human mind and love into the human heart to bring me to today. ברוך אתה-שהחיינו וקיימנו והיגייני לזמן הזה. 🙏🏻🙏🏽🙏🏾🙏
Hundreds and hundreds of Mishloach Manot packed up and ready for you!! Can’t wait to celebrate with you!
Thinking of friends and family back in Texas today! Stay warm and safe!
Celebrated the second yahrtzeit (anniversary of a death) of my bubbie Helen last night and today. She was a gallery artist, a singer, and the fiercest woman I knew. May her memory be a blessing.
