Sharing With My Great Grandmother

Last week my family and I went to visit my Great Grandma Goldie who is 103 years old. I read to her my latest post on mitzvahs and it brought joy to her ears. Even though Great Grandma Goldie couldn't hear that well, she thought it was a lovely post. Great Grandma Goldie spent her whole life doing mitzvahs for others. She helped many family members in different ways. Today, her family members are giving her the mitzvahs she gave others such as giving her companionship and lending a helping hand.  When I told her I was going to Israel for my Bat Mitzvah and helping a girl my age in Israel, she thought it would be a rememorable and meaningful experience. She wishes she would be able to join my family and I. She hopes to be around to hear about the experience.

P.S. I still haven't gotten a letter from Shira but I will let everyone know once I do.
