Um, what?

Hi! It's been a while. The most festive month of the year is over, and we are buried under lots of ice and snow, so it must be February! I think I am the only person I know who really prefers this time of year and this weather to anything else. Maybe it's the Bostonian in me, maybe it's because I was born in January, or maybe it's because it is acceptable to wear lots of black in the winter, but I just love the winter. Give me an 8 degree day over an 80 degree day, any day.

Not too much to report around here. I am busy at work planning the PTA Mother/Daughter Brunch and loving it. No, I am not embarrassed in the least to admit that I have always wanted to be on the PTA and aspire to official positions. Is anyone surprised?
Amira's Chumash Presentation is coming up in a couple of weeks, and I can't believe it. I remember mine so clearly. I even remember all the words to the song I sang and the costume I wore, and the part that I wanted to play but didn't get to. If you ask Amira, though, the most exciting part is that her Saba and Savta are coming!

Anyhow, one quick Yaakov story:
Yesterday I was told that Yaakov had apparently licked his best friend's pants. Yes, licked. I asked him if it tasted good and he said, "no, it was gross." Then I asked him WHY on earth he would lick an item of clothing, and his reply? His best friend told him to taste his pants because they tasted like Pizza.
I am still giggling picturing this discussion. I just cannot imagine that this would ever happen with girls, although that could just be because my girl experience is of Amira.
So, it appears that Yaakov has inherited my gullibility...
