We didn't real mean to neglect the blog, life just got busy. Good busy, but busy. I forgot how a baby takes up so much of your "free" time...and brain cells.
I had some really good blogs in me, but then the moment passed and/or it was Friday night or Shabbos morning.
I had a great one come to me on Yom Kippur night. I was dealing with the three and half year old, as I was putting in her in bed I was struck so strongly by the relationship of parent/child as it pertains to man and G-d. It just becomes so much clearer when you pay attention to your own relationship with your kids.
There was one about the absolutely crazy things my kids said in one week, all of which I have completely forgotten.
Those are the few I can remember right now, as I run in between the kitchen, the succah, shopping with the big girls, and feeding the baby. Honestly, if I didn't feed him, I don't think I'd have seen him at all in the last week.
Speaking of him, you can all join us at his Ushpizza on the fourth night of Succos. You'll get his name right, if you keep in mind the nusach we would follow (it goes by the father, folks!).
I kinda thought I'd have a certain someone very ably pick up the slack, as one of his stellar postings would equal to quite a few of mine, but apparently, SOMEONE has to "work for a living..."
We plan to get better. Hang in there.
Thanks.
