Saying goodbye once again to Israel and my children

This is my last day of a 6 week trip in Israel. So much to think about. I did not do many things that I had hoped to do. The important things like seeing my children and their homes I did. We were planning a trip for a while but when we got the date for Segev's "Chomta" well it was decided that we would fly during Sukkot. 

I am always sad that I have to leave. I miss Israel a lot when I am not here. We had to leave but now I wish I could live here again.
So much about Israel speaks to me, but most important my family. Beyond that, I feel always at home here. I like walking around and seeing how much building is going on everywhere. When I visited the Jerusalem museum I took a guided tour about archeology, they were all women and I had so much in common with them. When I was in Eilat and staying at a suite, the people there got so excited when I said that I was visiting one of my children that lives in Eilat. They asked where they all lived when I told them they sighed in relief, great they all live here in Israel. You must be so proud of them, he asked and I replied of course. I love that attitude, family is what keeps us grounded here in Israel.
