Boom.

I know, I know. Updating this blog isn't happening nearly as often as it should... I think that's because it's going to take some time to get to the Despite Motherhood part of my life. I guess that's what happens when you choose to be a WAHM (work at home mom) to a baby (now 9-1/2 months) and to a few other kids who come home any time between 1:30 and 4 and have busy lives of their own. Next year I'm planning a whole month of vacation (from work) once Yirmi starts going to daycare. But all this is actually not the point...

The point is this. Rockets are exploding all over the place. The last one just hit Beer Sheva. It doesn't scare me, but it's closer to home - Ohad spends a few days a week in Beer Sheva and his sister lives there... It is very strange to go on living normally when so many other people in the country can't.

I know- a missle hit Qiryat Malachi- literally 5 minutes away form where my husband'd family lives- it's scary. Be safe.

Oh Rachel, I can't imagine what it's like living in Israel right now. Please take care. I'm praying for your family's safety.

I sometimes wonder just how it is that Israelis cope with living in a state that must always feel just a bit under attack. Rockets = scary stuff.
