My heart, my love, my son.

Photo taken by JES while they were on a hike in Colorado.
I have to pretend he is still here-- to pretend he is in his room on his computer, or pretend he is at his apartment-- just to not realize the intense reality that he is far far away, and will be going farther, to Oregon, for a job.

How did my great great grandparents Joshua Magidson and Naomi Jachad, of Osveya Belarus deal with their only daughter Ester Gittel (Gussie) getting on a boat for America when she was 18, never to be seen again? Then a son left... then another... then two more went to Latvia, and another to Russia... then the wars?

Perspective. Keep it in perspective, Chrissy.
