It's rather risky, making plans for an 89 year old, but my family is planning a mitzvah very new to us. We're working hard to bring my father to Israel. Our empty nest won't be filling with our progeny, but with the family patriarch.
My children and grandchildren, too, are helping as much as possible, no, more than you can ever imagine.
We're filling in forms, finding documents etc to fulfill the requirements of Nefesh B'Nefesh and JAFI.
That's what's behind my blogging slience recently.
Last night when I couldn't sleep I posted the latest Kosher Cooking Carnival. I'll be jetlagged before I even board the plane.
G-d willing my mother will join him here in a few short months and they should both live out their lives, until a 120, surrounded by children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
