Purim-The story of Esther

My family has been studying and learning about the biblical holidays celebrated by Jews. On of them is Purim. The celebration of Esther saving her people. We made Haman cookies, acted out the play, watched One Night with the King, and listened to the story and played with our groggers. It was so much fun to do this with the girls. If you haven't seen the movie, it's a must see.

Becca and I dressed in purple shirts, black boots, and black skirts for school. I parent partnered on her birthday and when we got to school her teacher matched us. Not planned. We had strawberries with whipcream on top.



We had the best home made cake with a little pet shop on top. We checked out Publix toppers and $7 wasn't worth it. It turned out just perfect.

Becca's Birthday

Becca's First Painting Her Nails

Brian made a rule that the girls couldn't paint their nails until they stopped sucking their thumbs. Much to their mothers dismay, considering it is my passion. Becca officially put the thumb away and the night before her birthday we painted her nails. It was emotional for me.

This is what happens.....

when Mom can't feed him anymore goldfish, peas, or chocolate milk. And she doesn't have anymore diapers until Daddy gets home from the store. If he gets on the floor the pressure will explode his diaper and pee will spew like a fountain. So out of desperation and a need to cook dinner, there Bubbi sits.
