    no, & I wouldn’t want my 2 daughters & 2 daughters-in-law to have home births either. (nor do I think they would).

    I hear you, estherhamalka, & understand your point completely. I also don’t understand the (foolish) responses to your posting!

    a gift certificate to Eichler’s or another Jewish bookstore in her neighborhood… she can choose a (kosher) book or game

    “What’s the most creative excuse you ever heard for NOT SHOWING UP TO WORK ONE DAY?”

    I was snowed in…& none of the streets were plowed… & my car was stuck… & mass transit system was down & the airports were closed…

    Take your son to a Yeshiva in tzitzis & yarmulke; have the Rebbe point out the alef-beis in a sefer & aide him in licking honey off the letters. Make peckalach for the class (& siblings).

    MAZEL TOV!

    my daughter & I thought it was excessive when her mother-in-law spent $55 on a doll for my 3 yr old granddaughter’s birthday recently. IMHO

    -my 2 trips to Las Vegas with just my sister. When she took me for my birthday a number of yrs ago, we stayed @ the Luxor. when I then took her the next yr., for her birthday, we stayed @ the Flamingo.

    -in 2009 I had won 2 trips to Colorado thru Chinese auctions & we took them together (one didn’t come with airfare, one didn’t come with food). my DH & I first went for 6 nights to Mt. Princeton Spa & Resort near Salidas, CO. it was rustic but great quality time together. we brought a suitcase of food with us, but then found a Safeway & WalMart. from there we went for 4 nights to the Vail Cascade Spa & Resort where they had a kosher program going on.

    -all trips to Israel were great vacations, but especially when I went for 4 months & rented a modern apt. in German Colony, Jerusalem, followed by a charming apt. in the adjoining neighborhood of Ba’ka.

    I don’t have tv service anymore, but you should know that there are more tv shows available on the internet than I ever had available to me when I had cable.

    healthy, for sure (I agree with the above comments). My daughter & her DH go out on or around every Rosh Chodesh, usually for dinner.

    it sounds very plausible to me. Years ago my daughter went out with a boy, but didn’t think it was shiach for her, but then suggested him to her friend’s sister. B’H, both are married w/ children now.

    B’H– 2 yrs ago I won, @ different Chinese auctions: 2 trips to Colorado, a diamond ring, diamond earrings, a 2 yr car lease on a mini van, $500 Artscroll gift certificate, $500 B&H gift certificate, a sheitel, seforim shrank. 21 volume English Mishna Breurah,a GPS, $250 Step 2 Toys gift certificate,a gift certificate for a free bridal gown rental (& B’H, my daughter got married within the year!!!!– it was a jackpot prize… she wasn’t shidduch dating before that), etc. In the past I had won: another seforim shrank, another sheitel, a leather couch, The ‘Tur’ & many other seforim, silver candlesticks, a child’s bedroom set, woman’s shopping spree, a ‘den’ decorating pkg., a dinette set, a simcha singer’s services (used for my son’s wedding),etc. // for the past year and a half, I haven’t won anything! no complaints… I always say: it’s decided on Rosh Hashana & sealed on Hoshana Rabbah…
