2010 - Mika's and My Heaven-on-Earth
Mika "gives treatment" - she says - to our "old" olive-tree on "Crane-Piazza" |
Mika seems to remember Re'i Benjamin, Tamir's and Hilah's baby, from beyond ... |

Continuation
of Yael's visit with Mika
Efrat had bought 2 costumes, each for 20 NIS only.
"Get ready to take photos, Savta!"
she called.
The next morning, my last day this time, November
17, 2010
Mika, still not dressed, places herself in the corner of my cushion.
Somehow I made her angry, she lifts her hand, she turns her back.
Imma
calls from above; "have you eaten?" So Mika grasps the box with the "kariot" (cushions) cereals, climbs up a chair to choose a bowl for this morning, opens the drawer to chosse a plastic spoon, pours the milk from the bag in the fridge into a tiny nirosta jug, as I once had suggested to her, so that not too much milk would be left over and - if I don't use it - will be thrown away adds it the cereals in the pretty bowl and decides to sit today at the high kitchen table . |
While sitting next to her, I pay attention to the view from this window |
After breakfast and dressing
(as to her hair, she usually demands that this be done by her mother only,
but today - a bit later - Efrat demands, that I make her two braids).
t here is still time to play .
She now takes the seat on Nella's "throne" ,
and I take a mystical picture through the tiny cups in front of her
Imma wants to take her to kindergarden,
by car [on the way to her job],
but again Mika begs, that I take her.
I think, she enjoys our beautiful little walk by foot.
She uses to enter kindergarden without me,
but today I wanted to peep in from the outside,
to see, if she brought the two ceramic jugs,
painted by her and Yael the day before
safely .
Next to the window the assistant kindergardener lifted her head surprised,
Mika just came in, the jugs in her hand, and thus this pretty image manifested.
At 3:40 PM Mika's father returned from flight, he
had hardly time to hug his wife,
and we were already on our way to fetch Mika before the closure of the afternoon
school,
and take me - with tired Mika on the seat behind us - to the Lod train-station.
Another pretty outcome of the outing two days before
was that Imma bought Mika this crystal-ball
Mika chose a ball with a princess sitting on the moon, while the white socket
below shows the relief of a unicorn!
Mika went to bed with it and woke up with it, and Efrat had to struggle hard
against Mika's wish to take it to kindergarden.
"It will break, Mika!"
2 days later, Efrat called me in Arad, in order to
tell me, that the crystal ball had broken despite Mika's caution.
I said: "Maybe you buy her a new one - in
MY name- and this time with the unicorn inside the crystal ball ?" She
agreed.
[see my
coincidences on that day, Nov. 15]
November 22, 2010, Arad: I cannot let go of tracing the delicate Madonna shape of Mika's forehead, eyebrows and eyes
A crystal-ball with a unicorn inside
the ball - was bought in my name,
and I took this picture during my next visit,
between Dec. 8-14, 2010
Only
now Immanuel's father received the photos of his promotion in July
as Lieutenant-Colonel in the Air-Force, where he still serves in the reserve.
Despite my reservations about "Army" and "Army-degrees"
I feel proud........
