Celebrate the Small Things: A New Baby

WIt's another Friday to Celebtate the Small Things with VikLit, over at Scribblings of an Inspiring Author.

Today, I celebrate:

*my daughter still staying safe in Israel.

*the Iron Dome.

*my new grandson from my youngest daughter. What a surprise! She was due August 22nd.

*we had peppers from the garden this past Sunday, stuffed. And tomato and basil omelette a every morning. Yum!

*slowly but surely I'm still working on Killer Stilettos. But my characters keep coming up with stuff that will have to be resolved in book 3, Combat Boots.

So this concludes my celebrations. Have a happy weekend. Happy Shabbats if you practice!

Keep Israel and the Palestinians in your prayers.

Hugs and chocolate!

Celebrate the Small Things: Bombs!

This week I've been greatly distracted. I'm thankful for the writing time I've had this week. Almost every quiet moment I've had, has been spent in prayer. 

Tuesday, while I was working on a scene in Killer Atilettos, thunder boomers and lightning surrounded my neighborhood. While I was experiencing this my daughter, No-No and her husband, Ya'akov, we're running to their safe room, while sirens were sounded and rockets were being fired into Israel.

They live in Bene A'yish. It's tucked between Tel Aviv and Jerusalem.

Yesterday morning, No-No watched eight rockets shoot over her neighborhood. The Iron Dome intercepted each one.

So today, I celebrate my daughter and son-in-laws safety. I also celebrate that God is with them and all of Israel and all the innocent, this includes the Palestinians. They are Hamas's puppets.

Thank You, Lord of Hosts! I thank you that You are Israel's Protector and Fortress! I thank You that you are their Deliverer and that You are an Almighty God!

Hugs and chocolate, all!
