Dear Torah Sister,
I hope and pray you all had a blessed Sabbath. We are deep into summer here in Michigan with lots of swimming, bike riding and backyard fires with friends.
Keep on telling your friends about Torah Sisters Magazine! Remind them they can get great articles from Torah keeping authors without having to be chained to Facebook.
A Day of Rest with Little Ones (Is That Even Possible?)
From guest blogger Katie Hirn at HomeschoolingTorah.com, "Recently, I was asked how do I make Sabbath happen with so many little ones. Currently, in our home we have four preschoolers, and one toddler. We also have ten other children ages 19 and down at home. So, is it even possible to have a day of rest?" Read more.
A Website to Learn Hebrew for Free

Little Children. Big God.
I want to introduce you to a great book by my torah keeping friend, Sarah Valente.
"Little Children. Big God." is an intricate weaving of deep study and childhood wonder as told by Sarah Hawkes Valente, a mother of five young children. Each chapter introduces essential doctrine through beautifully concise narrative--simplifying sometimes confusing scriptures while still preserving their integrity. Sarah challenges us to diligently teach our children, to be continually taught by the mouth of our Father, and to apply His eternal precepts to our everyday lives. This book is for anyone in search of renewed, child-like eyes with which to more clearly see the heart of our great big God. Buy now.
I love this Ancient Hebrew Website
I enjoy and am challenged by this website by Jeff A. Benner who is an expert in ancient Hebrew. I'm sending the link directly to a page on his website that explain his logo and the deep meaning behind the ancient Hebrew pictorgraph. He also has a youtube channel that you and your older children will enjoy and learn from. Read more.
Seeing the Best in Others
From SetApartPeople.com, "It is important how we see people, for this will determine how we act towards them. I once heard a little story about a man whose car broke down in a rural area. As he was walking to the nearest house, which was almost a kilometer away, he was wondering if this farmer would help him by lending him a tool to fix his car. As he continued on, he convinced himself that this farmer would probably not want to help him. So much so, that when the farmer opened the door, he did not even ask for the tool, but instead shouted at him that he can keep his stupid tool.
I can relate to this, maybe you can too? We assume things about other people, often the worst. Instead of giving them the benefit of the doubt, we react based on what we have made up in our minds about them. We don’t even attempt to find the truth. These assumptions are often born out of our own insecurities and fear of rejection. We could also have too high expectations of others. Then, if our expectations are not met, we may react quite harshly out of disappointment. This is once again a reaction as a result of a wrong perception or assumption.
This assumption thing ruins relationships. Maybe we can ease off those assumptions and communicate more." Read more.
