Clemmie's braces

This week Clemmie got her top braces. She did not have a lot of pain and I thank God for that. She will go back on the 16th of Dec. and may get the bottom braces then. It will all depend on how much her top teeth have moved. I am posting some before and after photos of her....she will probably want to kill me, but I just think that she is so beautiful...both with the braces and without them. If you enlarge the "after" photo, you will see that she chose to get pink and lime green. Too cute! The last photo is Clemmie telling me ..."No more pictures, Mom!"

Visit with Rabbi Greenbaum

Rabbi Avraham Greenbaum was in Alabama this week and we were blessed to be able to travel up to Birmingham both days to visit with him. My time spent listening to him teach and then just talking with him still seem surreal. We met him last year, but this year's visit was so much more personal.....I was able to seek his advice and guidance and he was so willing to listen to me (little 'ole Tammy from south Alabama). I really just can't put into words just how I am feeling. I feel that I have made a friend for life......someone that I can call or email anytime.

Ready for the Sabbath!

Rabbi Greenbaum is Coming!

I have been waiting for this week for so long and now it is almost here. My "Rabbi", Reb Avraham Greenbaum, will be flying into Alabama on Tuesday, Nov. 11. He will be here for 2 days and I am so excited. Reb Avraham will be speaking in Birmingham on the 11th and the 12th. We will be going up early on Tuesday to pick up the keyboard that we rented for him. He plays and sings so beautifully! We will be there to greet him on the 11th and will most likely be with him all day on the 12th. This should give us so much time to soak up all of his wonderful teachings and to ask and get answers to many of our questions. Rabbi Avraham is so welcoming to Jews and Gentiles alike. I will try to post photos and details of our visit on Thurs. or Friday. Can't you just feel my excitement! LOL

Shavua Tov!

I Voted!

Right after lunch, Bruce and I made the journey down the road to our polling place. I feel that this is possibly the most important election that I have ever participated in.
I am very concerned about the outcome ....but I also know that ultimately it is in God's hands...so I voted...but I put my trust in Him!

Now........ we wait for the results!
