Mrs. Balabusta’s Rosh Hashana Primer

Here are some good holiday tips for parents, especially moms, from someone with extensive experience in the field.

After the practical suggestions comes the poetry:

"Remember that you are making memories here, and they should be warm, happy, good ones. I don't care if the silver is polished or not, no one remembers that. They remember singing in the kitchen, peeling massive amounts of potatos together and the smell of the soup when you walk into the house. Enjoy yourself, enjoy your husband and enjoy your family. Enjoy your life, it's a gift, a privlige and it's up to you."

K'tivah v'chativah tovah--roughly translated, may your name be written and sealed in the Book of Life.
