This morning, I woke up with energy for no particular reason. You know those mornings where the simplest joy is just being? That was me. As I soaked in the moment, I realized it’s been over a month since my last blog post.

Today was my daughter’s third birthday party, and it was truly magical. The theme was all things princess, and the house was transformed into a royal kingdom filled with tiaras, glitter, and smiles. Her little friends came dressed as princesses, each one glowing with joy as they twirled and played.

December is here, and with it comes celebration, and cherished moments. This month is extra special for us because so many milestones are happening all at once.

Every morning, we’re blessed to wake up, to take a deep breath, and start a new day. Another opportunity. We get busy focusing on our goals, to-do lists, and the destinations we need to reach it’s easy to forget the One who makes it all possible.

I came across a poster at work that said, “Be kind to your mind.” At first glance, it struck me as a gentle reminder to speak more kindly to myself. But the more I stared at those words, the deeper their meaning became. It wasn’t just about positive self-talk, it was about truly recognizing my own strength, wisdom, and resilience, things I rarely give myself credit for.

As I sit on the plane heading back home, I find myself filled with gratitude. I thank Hashem for the miracles He has given me and for the emunah He has given me throughout this crazy journey.
