A different birthday

Day 696 - I drove with my daughter to the kibbutz to visit her adoptive family. It happens to be the kibbutz's 68 birthday and so we went with them to take part in the party. I grew up in a kibbutz so this very naive and innocent atmosphere is something I'm familiar with but still it was so beautiful and different. I really enjoyed it. It is something long forgotten in the city but here in this closed knit society these values and this behavior is the norm and I love it. I am happy we happened to be here on such a day.

I am thankful I got to spend this special day with this wonderful family. I am thankful I have a day with my daughter; I really miss our old routine during her military service. I am thankful for a great day.
