has it really been ten days… September 27, 2007
…since my last post? Oh, my, well, it is the holiday season for us Jews, so you’ll have to (read: you are Divinely obligated to) forgive me . Here’s some holiday-time highlights:
*At Yom Kippur services, Yosef took the girls into the hall for a breather. They’re playing a game: you say a word, and the next person has to say a word that starts with the letter that yours ended with. Yosef starts:
Yosef: Panda.
Bassie: Apothecary.
and…scene.
*Me, Bassie, and Dina are in the car.
Dina: Bassie, what’s 888+9?
Bassie: (thinks for a minute) 898.
Me: Hmm…are you sure?
Bassie: (Indignant) Yes, Mommy.
Me: But, why does it still end in an 8?
Bassie: Mommy! You are not a math expert like me and Daddy!
Okay, Bassie, just make sure to check your work…
