From Russia to India

Just got home from a long and productive day, it feels so good to know the kids are doing amazing and growing in their own way, and I can too!  My girl had an evaluation and the teacher told me she has leadership skills, it is no surprise to me, she helps other kids, she helps hand out snacks, even helps when a teacher is on a break and they need someone to take over, that's my girl.  My baby is adjusting so well, doesn't even go look for his sister anymore, just happy with his class and his new friends, blessed.

Last night I was running across articles about Jews from different parts of the world, and this one was super long, but I could not stop reading.  There was a huge Jewish, Kabbalistic community in India,

Also this past weekend I was reading about an amazing performer that I really relate to, she has Russian roots, lived by her own rules, made everybody smile, and was a showstopper,

Today has been an absentminded day for me, my phone is somewhere, luckily because of Facebook I was able to connect, and get to my class on time.  I couldn't figure out where I left my water bottle, got a new one, and found it today at a place I do not remember taking it.  Now there are two, and it actually is a good thing, summer is coming, the kids always want my water.

Ready to turn in for the night,
Today was a delight,
Everything will be alright,
I really think I need a bite (of food)
Summer is almost here, makes me excite,
Soon on Lag B Omer we will ignite (a bonfire)
Be the Light,
With all your Might,
Out of sight,
I love to write,
Good Night,
