I’m back after a lonnnng hiatus!

It’s been a really long time since I’ve blogged.  Once I stopped I couldn’t get back into it.  I had some exciting news, though, to write about and that’s why I’ve decided to start again.  Do, for the news, on Friday night my brother and sister-in-law had their baby girls!!  Mazal Tov to Barry and Sara on the birth of their girls Adelyn and Emily!!

Otherwise, it’s been business here as usual.  The kids are doing well in school.  Ben still isn’t thrilled about being there but he’s dealing for now.  They only have 6 weeks left until we head to the States for Ayelet and Jordan’s wedding and the rest of the summer.  I went to parent teacher’s conferences last night for Talia and her teacher said that she is doing very well.  She said that she’s a smart girl and her Hebrew is amazing.  She can’t believe that she’s only been here 2 years.  The only problem is that she is a bit disorganized and she often can’t find her books during class.  That was no surprise.  Her bag is often a complete mess and her dairy where she is supposed to write down her homework is a mess.  SO we’ll have to do something about her organization skills. 

After the conferences I went to my dressmaker.  She seems to be doing a nice job on the dress.    I am happy with her and very confident that the dress will be very pretty.  So I am excited about that.

Today Ben mentioned something about “yom shishi” and Keren announced, “Keren color Ben gan yom shishi”.  Translation in case you couldn’t figure it out:  Keren is going to color in Ben’s gan on yom shishi.”  So cute!!

So that’s pretty much everything that’s going on here.  I know I haven’t mentioned how Pesach was or Yom Ha’azmaut or Lag B’aomer but they were all fine and, once again, the year is almost over and it’s flying!!
