Dear Chaya, congratulations on reaching this auspicious milestone! May you have a long life to 120! Amen! This month we celebrated Sukkot. It was nice to give you some gifts, and spend so much time in the sukkah. I think you enjoyed it! Of course we ended the holiday with Simchat Torah, which we kept […]
At first I was adamant I wanted to try and represent something other than the rainbow for parsha Noach, but then I asked myself… why? I’m just trying to get these done – stay committed to a task for the whole year. I don’t need to make this so complicated! So inspired by a rainbow […]
Back into art journaling. It’s been niggling at me, and I think the time is right to make with my hands again. I need it I guess. I’d love to have a whole Torah worth of art journaling pages – one for each parsha. So that’s what I’m trying to achieve. I’ve attempted it many […]
Dear Chaya, You are eleven months old, and a very loved member of our family. Just a few days after I wrote you last letter you started standing up on your own! Everyone is so excited for you. And it’s very exciting to see you take these next steps (literally and figuratively!), especially after all […]
A sleepy baby girl sitting at my feet on the couch A long morning nap this Shabbat Finishing putting together all my 2019 photos, so that I can keep going on the photobook A big home with lots of room and space to move and breath Bird song all day every day A growing garden […]
Dear Chaya, My sweet girl, what joy you bring. It’s been so interesting to watch you develop this last month, and change from being happy to hug anyone, to just sticking to the people you know. Even Grandma and Pa doesn’t get an automatic hug! I guess it’s just part of your development and being […]
Dear Chaya, Hello my little choochala! My happy, smiley, friendly, snuggly girl. What a month! Since we put you on the bottle we’ve noticed you have more energy and “life” about you. You’ve also gained a ton of weight, and started making some big progress towards your milestones. It’s been a funny thing – putting […]
Dear Chaya, what a ride. The biggest thing that happened this month is that we stopped breastfeeding. Easily the most heartbreaking and difficult thing I have ever had to do in any setting, but especially as a mother. I can hardly even go into the details here now, because it’s still so raw. The short […]
I’ve been feeling unhealthy of late. Nothing so major, just a tired-ness that’s come over me. My thyroid isn’t up to scratch (though the test results are looking fine), and I’m slowing gaining back the weight I lost during pregnancy and early postpartum. I’m keen to get back to this sort of prime health state […]
