Dreams

Hazel's been really into the concept of dreams lately.  Yesterday while we were driving in the car to swimming she said, "What if all of this is just one big dream?" 

And every morning she's full of stories about that night's dreams.  This morning: 

"Mom, I had a really big dream." 

"What was it about?" 

"Fingerdips!" 

"Fingerdips?" 

"Yes.  Fingerdips. You know those things where you dip your fingers."

"Like food?"

"No. Fingerdips."

Maybe she's going to invent them. 

Purim

Our Purim celebrations started on Friday night when we had a fun-filled family Shabbat at Hazel's school. All the kids and some of the grownups (including us, of course) dressed in their Purim costumes, Chris played music and we all shared food, wine and fun times.

Then, on the actual Purim, there was a parade and festival at Hazel's school. She had a blast.
