Being a Mommy
It's eight o'clock in the morning. My husband leaves to take
the kids to school. I am sitting on the couch nursing our three-week-old

Trying to Leave Egypt
If I am to truly leave Egypt behind, it won't be as a result of

or Your divine attributes, eating right, increasing my daily fiber
intake, or even praying. There is no solution other than to cry out to
You, I suppose...

Understanding Shavuot
At that moment the angels understood what it means to be human
and to have to deal with the challenges that we deal with. It took them a
