Sunday

Home: The beginnings of Shayna's Team Tikkun Olam are installed on Austin's PKD Walk for the Cure website. She and I finished putting them up and then she was off to Hebrew and her Rabbi meeting. In Hebrew, Tikkum Olam means "helping to prefect the world" and it is part of Shayna's work towards her Bat Mitzvah, later this fall; her service project as she learns to be part of her community, and part of the reason Liz and I attended the Austin PKD Chapter meeting yesterday.

Hey Jack, I have been thinking about you and just wanted you to know. This is the first time in a very long time that I have even looked at your blog, and that's mostly because I just wanted to say "hi." And....WAY TO GO SHAYNA!! Love, YC
