Coasting... (Yael)
posted Mon May 14th 2012 @ 1:56 AM

In our family, we are officially in end-of-the-year mode. We have been for a long time already—I think this feeling of coasting started when we had that crazy-warm weather a few months ago. The kids started to spend more time outside, and I guess it just started to feel like summer. Never mind that since then the weather became seasonably cool again—we had shifted gears and pretty much stopped pedaling. The interesting thing, though, is that even though I've eased (way) up on any requirements, no one has stopped learning. On the contrary, all my kids have found their own ways of learning more than ever. Read More »

Growing Pains (Rivkah613)
posted Mon May 14th 2012 @ 12:20 AM

I will start off by asking for people to daven for Reuven Dovid ben Miriam. (***Updated name***) He got hit in the throat with a baseball and had to undergo surgery. Baruch Hashem he is alive but will have a stint in his throat for 6-8 weeks, not being able to talk. He will have a tracheotomy tube to breathe through until stint is removed. Afterwards, they will attempt to do reconstruction surgery and hopefully will be able to talk again.

It was a busy day today. Much has happened, and not with my children, but as I walked back into the house this evening, with my mind all full of different thoughts from the day, I took just a second to let what I saw and felt sink in. The two-year-old was standing at the kitchen counter on one of our folding chairs, singing and bouncing, just asking for the chair to collapse. It was nothing unusual, he loves to do that, however tonight it struck me different than usual, not sure why. Perhaps it was a combination of the day—making a shiva call, going hiking with the family, finding out my friend's husband got severely hurt in a very unusual accident, to other things—some planned, some unplanned, but it seems that on these days the little things get looked at differently.

The day after the conference, we finally made our way back home. We had driven down Motzei Shabbos, spent the night somewhere on the road, and arrived at the conference Sunday morning.

I can't believe it has been so long since I posted something here.  I actually forgot that I had a blog.  Really bad... :(  Actually we left room613 a while ago because our life was just so tumbled that we could not make on-line classes work with our schedule.  Hopefully some or all of my kids will make it back on next Fall.  Since I last posted, we have purchased a home, started many new learning ventures, and everyone has grown and changed a lot.
