4.14.45-9.16.22

 Two Fridays ago my mom died--Sharyn Terri Aplebaum.  I was with her Thursday evening and held her hand while she died.  It's been an insane time.  Full of trauma, grief, sadness, beauty and love.  I'm so grateful to have been with her and I cant believe Ill never visit with her again.  I already miss our phone calls and wish she wasnt dead.  This sucks.  Shiva was beautiful, our friends and family are incredible, Lowell is a great rabbi, Jacob a great husband. the kids my greatest gift, and the rest of the Lewish family our everything.  Im so sorry my mom wont be here to watch her grandchildren grow.

The Ahlim Class

 Our dear Sender started his final year of preschool today---in the Ahlim (leaves) Class.  He is quite pleased to be back in school with his friends and teachers.  This weekend we had AlteLu's 9th birthday sleepunder--a grand time, filled with beading, movies, laughing, and ice cream sundaes.  Savta went home and we hope she will come back soon.  Today will begin the ballet season, with swim starting next week.  Things are good, things are busy!
