My Hebrew Birthday

There are many beautiful traditions with Hebrew Birthdays, and one of them is to bless everyone we know and meet.  So I would like to bless everyone today with Health, Happiness, wonderful relationships, success, and enjoying life's blessings.

 

I took my baby to a wonderful mommy and me called Babyccino, it was at my children's school, Gan Chabad, he had a great time.  I had a great time meeting new mom's and seeing friends, and what I am most excited about is everybody is ready to get healthy and fit, and I am ready to figure out how to accommodate everyone's schedules and age of their babies, Thank God.

 

Below are a few facts about my Hebrew name and birthday.  I was born in Moscow, Russia during communist times when it was dangerous and not allowed to use Hebrew names, so Yulia sounded close.  I am named after my father's grandmother, who was a pillar of strength and tradition in her community in Grozny, Chechnya, near Turkey and Iran, Kavkazi, Mountain Jews, there are no Jewish people there anymore. 

 

My Hebrew Name is:

Yehudit

Yehudit means "praise." Yehudit appears as a hero of the Chanukah story who bravely killed the enemy general.

 

 

My Hebrew Birthday is:

4 Heshvan (5733)

The Torah Reading for that Shabbat was:

Noach (Genesis 6:9 - 11:32)

This Torah portion recounts the story of the Great Flood. Noah's Ark holds two animals of every species. After 40 days of intense rain, Noah sends out a dove to find dry land. The dove returns with an olive branch, known henceforth as the universal symbol of peace. God shows Noah a rainbow, as a promise not to destroy the world again. At the end of this Torah portion, mankind challenges God's dominion by building the Tower of Babel; God responds by dispersing the people and dividing them into 70 languages.

Coach Yulia
