So it was a week ago that noelie left and I think we've all sort of readjusted and I'm glad that we did it but I'm also glad that it's done and listening to David today at the luncheon for anika's bat mitzvah it seems like every kid is different experience to some degree 

I went to the bat mitzvah this morning it's been almost 2 years since Cara's bat mitzvah and I remember at that point I was in between hand surgeries.  You can never know what life is going to throw your way but I'm glad that I'm making forward progress now and Cara went for a walk with me this afternoon taking our dog Cosmo – she handled the leash.  It was also 21 years ago that Ron and I got married and we certainly had quite a journey and continue to.
