Mom: Gabrielle it’s Thursday, you get to make Challah today at school!
Gabrielle: Are you ready to make a berachah everyone?

Amen!
Gabrielle and I were make believe eating this morning, pretending her play-doh was corn, apple and then bread.
All of a sudden, she announces: “Baruch ata adonai elohenu”!
I don’t know who was more surprised me or the baby mamma! I guess she is learning something in school afterall!

Snapshot: 26 months
I’m all grown up these days. Sometimes my parents think I’m two going on twelve.
- In the morning I demand “Dora the Explorer” and “Milky”
- On our regular morning family walk I usually get a bagel with egg and cheese
- And then serve as spotter while sister hunts squirrels
- I most like to hang out with my friends Shubnum, Myles, Jackson and Sophia
- My newest most favorite game is locking my parents out of whichever room I’m in
- I never miss a chance to hug sister Schnitzelle and love to inspect her teeth
- When I’m not reading books on my own, I demand my parents read them again and again
- I have read Pinkolicious (I call it Pink Delicious) several hundred times in the last month
- And of course my favorite color is Pink
- If they made Mac and Cheese in pink, I would pretty much eat it exclusively
- I’m hoping my parents get me a “Lamborghini” when I turn 16, but I’m also a decent fan of “BMW”, “Mercedes Benz”, “Ferrari”, and “Porsche”. . . and yes I can identify them all!
- I think daddy is a great jungle gym with a full service swing – no high is too high
- I think Uncle Uri is a playmate at my complete disposal
- Sister is a “gorgeous midget hound”
And, I absolutely can’t wait to be an older sister!
