This is so interesting and beautiful, Yehudis. No news there. I'm always so taken by your stories and your ability to relate them to profound subjects.

Brilliant read, as always, Yehudis! Can't wait to buy your first book when you eventually tie all these stories together. :)

Alexandra! Thank you :) My sister actually just finished her first book manuscript..I'm so curious to see how our family memories aligns and differ in writing.

No way, that's awesome you have fellow writers in the family! I'm sure it'll be amazing comparing and contrasting. Enjoy and good luck to your sister :)

This warmed my heart and your mom’s question at the end made me smile.
