I forgot to mention in yesterday’s blog that Keren finally agreed to sit on the back of my bike and wear her little helmet!  We went to the play in the evening yesterday and we all rode our bikes there together. It was so cute.  In the past she wouldn’t sit on the bike for more than one go around on the patio outside but yesterday she was giggling while I took her on the bike. 

This morning I went to Ben’s school and read the kids a story.  It was NOT easy.  They gave me something to read since I hadn’t brought anything of my own and I had about 3 minutes to look at it before I had to read it and explain it to the kids.  Oy.  I was glad that the teacher was there b/c she helped me a lot.  It was not my most favorite thing to do.  Ben was very happy, though, and really enjoyed sitting next to me.  Keren made trouble, as usual, and started pulling off the boys’ kippot.  The teacher grabbed her and she wasn’t so happy with that until the teacher gave her a chocolate waffle.  That worked!!

We came home and I had to make another dessert for the people we are eating by on Shabbat b/c my other dessert kind of fell apart (I am not sure why) and I am going to bring it b/c it tastes good but I don’t want them to have to serve it if they don’t want to.  I think we are going to be 40 people at lunch on Shabbat!

Next Keren and I went to get flowers for the people we are sleeping at.

Now Talia is home and we are going to do some homework that she has to do on the computer.  Her computer keeps giving us a blue screen so I am going to let her use my computer to do her homework. 

I assume that I will have to get Eric at some point today.  He didn’t e-mail me to let me know that he is on the flight lie he usually does so I hope he is actually on the flight.  I’ll wait for him to call me and see what he says.  Wonder what happened…

Have to pack us all up too. Uch, I hate that.

Shabbat Shalom.
