I am a Mommy

GZ was shrugging his shoulders so I quoted to him from Eric Carle's From Head to Toe, "I am a buffalo and I shrug my shoulders... can you do it?"
He did it a few times; very cute.
 
Then I looked at Naomi and said, "I am a choochie and I smile so nicely."
She stared straight back at me and said "I am a mommy... and I hate my daughter."
 
Testing, testing.
Always with the testing.

    That Anonymous was not me, so it looks like you are up to 4 readers

    Technically... 37 visitors yesterday, but who's counting??? :-)

    But they're all looking for technical reviews of Windows Live vs Picasa, which is apparently what I do best.

    I'm happy to have even four REAL readers who didn't fall into the blog by accident!!!

    *Ahem* -- FIVE! If family counts.

    You should really syndicate (or whatever) this blog on your FB profile. Why don't you?

    Wow, what did you answer back to her when she said that?!?

    Even though how many people comment is only a small reflection of how many people are visiting, I thought I'd still post and let you know I stopped by your blog on purpose. :)

What do we tell our kids about Chabad and “Yechi”?

If I start by saying I really like Chabad, and adore the late Lubavitcher Rebbe, z"l, well... maybe you already know where I'm headed. Naomi Rivka has been asking lately what I think about Chabad.  She asks, in part, because she already knows how I feel.  She already knows I’m bothered, though to her, it’s mostly about “liking” and “not liking.”  I wish things were that simple. Our little neighbourhood in Israel has a significant Chabad presence, and Chabad conducts fairly significant outreach within the community.  Which sounds nice until you realize that this is a religious neighbourhood, closed on Shabbos, where some huge percentage of people are shomer mitzvos.  Sure, it’s mostly religious Zionist, and there are a range of observances, for sure, but we’re pretty much all religious here in some way or another.
