The boys have been continuing their Jewish studies with Rabbi Diane over Zoom. She recently shared about a non-profit organization that helps the unhoused and hungry called "Hang Out, Do Good." The boys made lunches and we also included a kit that contained socks, chapsticks, and face masks. It feels good to help others. Will they continue this good deed???

Palos Verdes
Sometimes it's nice to take a drive just to get away... and we have found that we enjoy the drive to Palos Verdes. The boys can spot Catalina Island and it's just a really nice scenic drive. As we look out the window, the boys will share stories from their experiences in 5th grade at Catalina and remember some of the good times they have shared with their friends. It's been almost a whole year since they have seen their friends so we know that they miss them a lot. We are hoping that the COVID 19 vaccine will be made available for teens soon.... when will that be???

Happy Valentines Day!
This morning I made challah french toast shaped into hearts for the boys. Then for lunch they had heart shaped grilled cheese sandwiches and then for dinner we ate Mongolian food made with love by a good friend. All of the meals were an expression of love. It's important for us to remember that, especially when we feel so isolated. It's good to celebrate the holidays that pass as it helps break up the monotony and reminds us of the good times, wouldn't you agree???
