Happy for my Family

Well my family is going to be counted among the Jewish people in a few days. I am not but Mom, Ian, and Daddy are. I just don't think it is the right path for me right now. It is vary exciting. Even though I'm not converting, They are and they are a big part of my life. And plus It will still effect me. I think it will be a little different but you know different is good. I think Mom and the Rabbi are a little worried about only half of our family converting, But I think it is going to be fine. I am so proud of my family they have wanted to do this for so long and now the have done it!! ok well almost. at first I thought they were not going to convert because of me and Joey, Now when I thought that I was going to convert for them, Even if I was I probably would not have made it through the bait din. LOL. I don't think I would make it through the bait din any way. I am not good with tests. Any way so the Rabbi had us wright an essay, I thought Joey and I would not have to, but all well we had to any way. So at first I did not know WHAT I was going to wright But when I started writing it just flowed out of me. I don't know how because I hate to wright I was amazed that I could actually right something that sounded ok. It was short and heart felt. The Rabbi thinks I am ready to convert but I told him that I did not think it was right for me right now and that when I was ready I would let him know. He said he understood. So I have been wondering just how different its going to be. I guess I will have to wait and see. lol Yeah Joey and I are going to have our own little Jewish boy! I will be putting photos of there ceremony on my blog. if they let me. lol Mom wants us to take LOTS and LOTS of pics!
Well my friends I think I have said enough so....
SEE YA

Chelsea, I am excited for your Momma, Daddy and Ian, but I am very, very proud of you for knowing that the time isn't right for you. It shows a great deal of maturity on your part to be able to stand up and say that you are not ready to make such an important and life changing decision. If this is the path that HaShem has for you, then you will know when the time is right. Love ya!

You go girl! I am proud of all of you, maybe you and Joey moreso because of how difficult it is to go against the majority of your family when it comes to religion. You guys have really just stuck with your own personal beliefs. But I'm proud of them too, everyone has to walk their own paths.
Love you girl!

Chelsea, you have such a sweet heart and strong spirit. I think you are very mature for your age. Such a huge decision takes a long time to make if it is done right. Look how long your parents took to get to where they are now. God made you what you are and you are very special to Him just the way you are. Conversion is definitely an option for everyone and a beautiful option but just as beautiful an option is choosing not to convert. This life is a journey and there is no rush to get to a destination. Take your time and enjoy each and every day you are given. Life is such an awesome gift!
