Remembering My First Visit to Chevron..and Hoping it Wasn’t My Last
I wrote this blog months ago, and never felt it was the right time to publish it..until this week. This week when a Chayal is under investigation for ensuring the safety from a terrorist after the terrorist attacked another Chayal in Chevon. Chayalim have the scariest job in the world. And they deserve out respect- EVEN if you think they might have made a mistake. And definitely don’t get me wrong- I don’t think he made a mistake. And no one should judge him or anyone else unless they wear that person’s shoes. Worry about yourselves and your actions. And leave the judging to GOD!

There was a man walking behind us, he caught up and said, “Excuse me, but are you ‘Tova in Israel’?” My friend on the phone was in shock. And I was happy people witnessed that- so I would know it isn’t just in my head. My kids started jumping and laughing, yelling out loud, “My Mommy is famous.” Sorry to disappoint them- I’m really not- just in my imagination. Maybe.…Continue Reading

Pre-Purim Pandemonium
Ninja Turtles, Spiderman, kings, princesses, pirates, minions.. the list of costume choices can go on for pages. Purim is in the air. It’s the Jewish holiday that teaches us that even though God’s name isn’t mentioned in the Megilla and He seems hidden, in reality God and His miracles are ever present. This is one of the reasons that kids and adults of every age, get dressed up in costume- masked, cloaked, veiled. It’s the day that you can have fun with your imagination- and dress like someone you only normally would dream of dressing like- or not.
