Setting up this blog

I hadn't given much thought as to what to write in my first post. I am a married mother of four, currently living in Texas. I've lived in Israel twice now, and I am always hoping that I can move back with my family successfully before my kids get too old and we get too entrenched in life here.

Problem is, we have no "rights" to speak of, having used them up in the past. Moving to Israel, as I know from personal experience, is an expensive undertaking. Not to mention emotionally exhausting trying to relocate an entire family to a different country. My kids have a basic understanding of Hebrew, but not enough to get along in school.

My husband and I talk about it all the time, but we realize we just can't afford to consider it. I wish I had some creative ways to create a "Move to Israel" fund, but I'm drawing a blank. Just paying for our day to day expenses is hard enough!

So for now I have to dream from afar, that maybe someday, I'll be able to return. This time, for good.
