chicago update

Well, I haven't posted for a while, so here goes. First of all, thank you all for the pictures you sent or emailed to me. I put together my frame and Tattie helped me to hang it up, and now I enjoy looking at it when I miss all my delicious grandkids. I'm always open for more pictures - I can start another frame. Happy Birthday to Ari Ben-Porat who has reached the big 6, kein yirbu, bli ayin hara,etc. Esti made him an elephant cake, and I bought him a roaring elephant to play with. On Monday, he had a birthday party in school. Refuah Shleima to Adina (sinus infection) and Michal (ear infection) and Rucky (plain bad cold). Itchy is going on a ski trip tomorrow with HTC - we'll report when he gets back. Tattie and Mommy are looking forward to our upcoming trip to Passaic to visit the Harary family. Tattie and I have been going out to dinner lately once a week - tonight was the night. We've been going to Taboun - they have lots of veggies for Tattie. If anyone has any other ideas, we are open to suggestions. Tattie is continuing to melt away - he's down about 35 pounds. I think this is it for the news from the home front - not a very busy week. Hope you all are doing well and feeling good. Love, Mommy, a.k.a. Savta.
