Happy Purim!


Today we celebrate Purim. It's a beautiful holiday with a beautiful story about a heroic Jewish woman, named Esther who became the queen of Persia and rescued the Jewish people from all sorts of evils. On Purim we dress up as... anything, but mostly it's easy to notice lots of queens and princesses :) There's always a carnival at the temple and it's a great time that usually makes me feel like a child again. I usually dress up as something other than my self, but this time, it was a little hard to come up with an idea, especially when it takes me forever to find an outfit that actually fits me... Everything I have is either too small or too big...

To see my girls loving the holiday and get fascinated with the story and how they know all the characters is priceless. Today I feel so lucky to have my Lia and Maya right here with me - They are my beautiful, adorable, smart, goofy, sweet daughters who make me so happy and I love them so much, words cannot describe.

My very good friends Kineret and Mikey just had their fourth daughter today in L.A. I would like to congratulate them here. Mazal Tov ! I am so happy and excited for you! Can't wait to see a photo! Lots of health, happiness, love, hugs and kisses from all of us here - Lia, Maya, Mikey and I.

That is the cutest picture ever. Lia and Maya get prettier by the day, and they seem so happy! I wish we were closer to celebrate Purim together like when Sammy and Lia were 1 year olds.........
