Don’t Ask if I’m Ok

📜I knew that this summer would be hard – but as usual – I underestimated how hard. We are talking emotionally hard, and we are talking about a very very long to do list.

🌀I already felt busy with my life without adding more things on to it.

🌺Let’s start with my daughter’s Bat Mitzvah. It is this Saturday. I can’t even begin to tell you how much work I have done for this Bat Mitzvah. I’m going to be very honest and tell you that I didn’t even want to do it.

💻My son’s Bar Mitzvah got canceled because of Covid. We did a Zoomitzvah.

⭐For my daughter’s Bat Mitzvah, we had a very small celebration, and we had a blast.

🥳I did two. Isn’t that good enough? Nope – my husband said our third child needed to do it too.

⏱️So, I have spent hours upon hours working on my list to please my husband and daughter.

📲Catch me live tonight at 9PM as I talk about the emotional chaos of these milestone moments, and how I’m learning to choose joy in the middle of it all!
