A Mommy Rant about Lunchboxes

May 12, 2017February 1, 2018 rinameansjoy

Can I rant about something totally meaningless for a moment?  Lunchboxes!  I bought my kids the most adorable animal lunchboxes.  Here, see, aren't they adorable? Presumably, in my mind, if a kid takes his lunch to school in a cute lunch box it will make up for all my other failures as a mother. It will… Continue reading A Mommy Rant about Lunchboxes

Grandma’s House

April 24, 2017 rinameansjoy

I had many happy memories as a child, despite my recent portrayal of fear and chaos and extremism.  So now I'll share some of those, and I want to dedicate it to my Grandmother, Viola, who passed away several years ago, to Papa Bill and his new wife Judy, and to My Mom, who deserves… Continue reading Grandma’s House

Mothering the Moshiach

March 29, 2017March 30, 2017 rinameansjoy

When we visited Israel last Sukkot (2013), we sat in a sukkah at a beautiful gourmet meal, and as it very regularly happens, the story of our Jewish conversion came up... We told it for the first time in Israel, in Yerushalayim, in the Holy City, and I will never forget our hostess's response. “Wow,… Continue reading Mothering the Moshiach
