Busy week

I'm writing this from Aliza's aunt's house in Toronto. Her grandfather passed away late Monday night, after a 4 year long battle with mesothelioma. We'll be here for a few days while her father, uncles and aunt sit shiva with their mother and Aliza's great-aunts. Rena's presence has really helped boost people's moods. It's amazing to think that she had five living great-grandparents. Aliza and I have our cellphones, and we'll check e-mail sporadically, so we're reachable if need be.

Gonna go hug my kid now...
