So many of you replied that you’d love to learn more about less-toxic living, more content coming IYH, but for now — check out the brand in Just for You below.

This week (Friday) is Rosh Chodesh Kislev. Don’t forget to harness your power of prayer in your own words or with the tefilla below.

Before we dive in 👉 Can you please do me a personal favor and forward this email or share this link: justamin.com with your sister, neighbor or friend? Hugest thanks! 🙏

JUST IN TIME

You blink, and your newborn is sitting…standing…walking… what?! Sometimes it feels like time — and the memories, achievements, and experiences that fill it — is flying past in a blur.

It really bothered me. So I committed to pausing once a month, reflecting back, (flipping through my camera roll to remind me what exactly happened), and appreciating, thanking, and preserving. We list a milestone for each family member and will take lessons with me like, “so many people helped with x, you’re loved!” or “Hashem is paving the path.”

It has been so special to do this, so I wanted to share it with you. Do it yourself, with your husband, or the whole family. Save them in a folder like this one or looseleaf, and treasure it.

JUST FOR YOU

🧤HACK: Make mittens unloseable. Make it impossible for your kids to lose mittens/gloves. Stitch each glove onto a string (like this one) and string it through the sleeves of their coat. We’re on year two with a pair of gloves that we managed to keep this way!

🌹REC: Use real ingredients for real results! Rosemblance offers a full line of handcrafted plant-powered skincare, including fan favorites like Bakuchiol Moisturizer and Chamomile Lavender Cleanser. Treat your hardworking hands to ultra-moisturizing Coco-Oat Hand Lotion, the perfect shield against winter dryness, and keep your little one's skin protected with our gentle, preservative free baby diaper care. Plus, when you need a moment of peace (or the perfect gift — Chanuka alert! 🎁🚨), our luxurious, oil-infused bath bombs are a must-have!
