Kvelling. It’s a verb. It means to be extraordinarily pleased or happy! We have our ups, we have our downs, but this week has been filled with a lot of, much appreciated, extraordinary happiness! I hope the same is true for all of you!
Working hard at what you love comes easy when you love it — I’m kvelling!Frog and Toad — I love those guys (and she is reading, to me… I’m kvelling!)“Mommy, can I learn to type on my computer, please!” Yes, I’m kvelling!Forget Godot, we’re waiting for Barbara! Yes, kvelling! ❤Watching the E-A-G-L-E-S fly! Kvelling for the underdogs! We moved to the big screen shortly thereafter!Who’s kvelling more? Me looking at my boychik? Or Gatsby, dozing in the rays of sunshine?
And the Yiddish proverb I leave you with this week is:
Love your neighbor, even if he plays the trombone! Libh deyn khbr, afilu aiob er fyeses di trambone.
What a truly beautiful post. I am kvelling now with my little man snuggling into my side and looking at your beautiful family pictures. Thank you for linking up to #PointShoot 📸
So sweet – it’s so important to focus on the little things that give us pleasure. Your photos are just perfect, from a mom’s point of view!

We had the pleasure of seeing Frog and Toad at the theatre last spring! They reinacted all the stories and it was so wonderful! I am thrilled my girls love Frog and Toad too! xoxo #pointshoot
You’ve given me some food for thought missus with this weeks yiddish verb. Loved seeing your happy pics. We have had such a happy week over here. Surrounded by the love of friends and family, and we’ve been hosting which is such a rare thing but it makes me so happy. I love to spoil and please people when I can. Big love to you and yours. Your girls are beautiful.

I love the Frog and Toad books! My 6 year old just finished reading several collections of stories to me. Keep on kvelling! 😀

Thanks Eric! We saw a play with them in the city. Faces from when I was a kid. Timeless I guess!

I am happiest when reading a book. Or snacking. Luckily, I can do them at the same time!
