Selective Memory

It\’s not easy being 52, especially when you\’re a country. Israel and I are the same age, and I get the feeling it\’s harder on her than on me.

There were 116 graduates of our modern-Orthodox day school that June long ago, and today 12 of us live in Israel, four men and eight women. Half the women are grandmothers by now; one has a granddaughter the same age as my daughter. Jeepers, how time flies.
