Two Kickballs Required

Dear NHL and JSL,

Spring break is basically over. It has been a relatively relaxing one spending time with both of you. Thanks to Passover, we stayed close to home most of the time. The weather was cooler and did not allow us to pack a picnic for the park.

Just before break, JSL and I went shopping to get a few things. While there, I walked by the big display of kick balls. I knew that NHL wanted one after using them at school. We walked over and picked one out. Little did I know that it would be very popular with the two of you. So much so that we HAD to get a second one.

The two kickballs went with you and Daddy to the park the other day where you played Volley-Basketball. A few days later, we went back to the park together. It was fun watching the two of you play, run, and get so much energy out. You truly did seem to enjoy having your own kickballs and even made great games using both of them together.

Volley Basketball Time

Yes, some days it is the simple things that make me smile and the two of you so happy. I know this will be something we do over the summer.

Love,

Mommy

Easter Wishes 2012

The boys and I are just finishing up our second Passover Seder. While we continue with our celebration, I wanted to take a moment to send Easter wishes to all that celebrate today.

Happy Easter 2012

May your day be blessed and filled with many memorable moments with family and friends. Oh, please have some Easter candy for me since I can’t have them during Passover. I’m giving you permission, so the calories don’t count – right?!

Quiet First Passover Seder 2012

Dear NHL and JSL,

This year, we had a quiet first Seder. It was just the four of us, plus Nana and Papa came to join us. I love Passover and being with lots of family, but it was nice to be silly, and get done a bit earlier. We kept things very, very, very simple. Nothing but our “finest china” would do. We also made sure that JSL’s Passover projects from school were ready to go.

Ready for our Seder

At first, everyone followed along in the Haggadah. NHL, you sang the four questions to us in Hebrew. You did a great job. It also impressed me that your little brother was able to sing along after learning the song in nursery school.

Time to retell the story of Passover

Then things got a bit off track once Daddy went to hide the Afikomen. Yes, we had to get our Seder Sillies out.

Friday was a busy day getting ready for everything. Today, it will be nice to spend a more quiet day together while getting ready for our second Seder that will no doubt have more memories made.

Love,

Mommy

Extra Hour Wishes

Right now, I really wish I was here:

Disney Dreaming

The reality is that I am at home getting ready to have two Passover Seders at our house Friday and Saturday evenings. So I will be looking for a hidden Mickey in my matzoh, but not sure that will happen. Hmmmm….

Wishing for Mickey Matzah

So while I am off helping TechyDad get everything ready, I leave you with a not too serious question.

If you had three extra hours in the day that were just for you, how would you use that time?
