Elul
Woke up this morning to the sound of shofar blasts.
Went to the store and honey cake was being sold.
Elul zman.
Nothing like it outside of Israel.
May this year be sweeter than the last, please Gd.
Bar Mitzvah
Wow, have not written a post here in ages. We (or I) have been super busy between rockets, drones, friends and family sent back and forth to the war front, preparing for our eldest son's bar mitzvah. For months we felt conflicted how to celebrate and dance when there's been so much pain and turmoil. The death of Sinwar and future security helped that a bit. And of course, the 60 friends that came to make the event as happy as possible. Having our son read under palm tree branches and here in Israel, is something we truly feel is a blessing and a merit. Hope we continue to pinch ourselves to wonder how we've come to this milestone and 5 years here.
