Have you read the Memoirs of Gluckel von Hameln or have we talked about it? So good. Two hundred pages of seventeenth-eighteenth century Jewish woman detailing how excellent her deceased husband was and how proud she is of marrying off her many children, (all done while avoiding being killed in pogroms and surviving everyday systemic antisemitism, though she is less focused on that than on various family feuds etc). The writing is excellent and the whole thing is delightful.
I will talk about ear infections and gross motor skill development with you anytime. Xo.
Love reading all things mommed-out from you.
