Preparing for SHABBAT with My Kids | Day in My Life DITL | Orthodox Jewish Mom (Jar of Fireflies)

Today I am sharing another day in my life as I prepare for shabbat. The kids really pitch in today while I am busy cleaning. Off camera, they helped with the clean up efforts also, and on camera the kids were busy helping me bake dessert and set the table. In addition to all of that, I also prepared our main course for lunch, and chatted about our shabbat plans and how things in general are going. Hope you all enjoy and that you so much for watching this day in my life!
#DITL #JewishLife #OrthodoxJew
Hello and welcome! My name is Chana, I’m married to my best friend, and we have three wonderful children together. We also happen to be Orthodox Jews and we homeschool our kids. This video is a sneak peek into our daily lives :) You can see how this particular Jewish homeschool mom sets up her days, rolls with the punches, and gets it all done. Thanks for watching!

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend 💖 By the way, I forgot to include this in the video, but we ended up with just mashed potatoes made by my husband for a lunch side dish and it was perfect 💖

[@couturehelvetica1261]

Hello Chana, thanks for letting us tag along during your preparations. The "I have the time" followed by I literally have so much to finalise and not much time" is such a universal felling (at least for me it is 🤣). Happens almost every time a big holiday (or a small holiday, or just a general trip somewhere) comes around. The cupcakes look lovely! :)

[@jaroffireflies]

@@couturehelvetica1261 so glad you can relate :)

[@jaroffireflies]

@MI girl I get them from all over, thrift shops and second. Hand stores, hair covering stores, Jewish clothing stores, gifts, department stores…

[@jeanneamato8278]

It’s great that your children help and your daughter likes baking.

[@jaroffireflies]

She really loves to bake :)

When I saw Bella walk by those cupcakes I held my breath but she’s a good girl ❤️ my Hawk ate a whole stick of butter this week, twice! The second was when I was actually in the kitchen cooking. 🥺 Loved your video today.❤️

[@jaroffireflies]

Thank you Trish ❤️ Bella is really good about not eating our food most of the time lol

Idk why Shabbat / Shabbos prep videos are coming up in my suggested videos bc I’m not even Jewish lol but I loved watching this 💕 Such wholesome content and your kitchen with the black accents and everything is so nice!

[@jaroffireflies]

Thank you so much! And welcome :) I’m so glad you’re here :)

[@OurBucketListHasHoles]

I love your multitasking in the kitchen 😉

[@jaroffireflies]

Thank you 😊

[@metho635]

Seeing Bella walk by the cupcakes reminded me that whenever my sisters or I left a piece of bread with peanut butter on it near the edge of the table or counter, our cocker spaniel would it.

[@feliciafisher3748]

I love it. The little helping finger poking the candle. Your daughter running out of cupcake papers, the 2 green cupcake papers , the boys working together, your husband showing up to carry the dry clothes. As always, I enjoy the videos and the glimpses of the little guy. He makes my heart light up.

[@jaroffireflies]

Thank you Felicia 💖

[@heavenlane570]

I’ve been wanting to make your crockpot recipes so wanted to share I’ve made your crock pot chicken today as it is a balm 7 and snowing hard here in Maine! Smells amazing and can’t wait for supper. Shabbat Shalom!

[@jaroffireflies]

Oh enjoy the soup! Stay warm!

[@mags102755]

Your little boy with the blue yarmulke is so adorable with the plates over his head. I know you are taking it easy on yourself. I will still wish you well and advise that you rest as much as you can. I love watching you get ready for Shabbat. Thank you my friend.

[@jaroffireflies]

Thank you Margaret! I promise I am getting plenty of rest :)

[@pattyreed6426]

If u cut ur wicks down before lighting them the candles will last longer, less smoke ❣️

[@jaroffireflies]

Thanks for the tip!

[@juliabartlam2083]

I thought it was so sweet how your kids helped, even the little one! You arr truly a blessed lady.

[@shainazion4073]

Chana, I was a florist. It is better to cut the bottom of stems with a knife, a scissor pinches the stem and damages the capillaries in the stem. Any flower or green will do better if cut with a knife. If it is a woody stem, smash the end after cutting, like on woody greens, this will help with water intake. Your flowers will last longer and give you longer to enjoy them.

[@martaupward5992]

I just love how your youngest carried the dishes over his head to the Shabbat table. So special. Thank you once again, Chana.

I was so scared they would break lol but he did it!

And of course I love seeing Bella being the good dishwasher she is! Your cupcakes looked delicious too! Much love ❤️

Another wonderful video that I enjoyed so much! I truly love that your children have such servant hearts. Helping with the Shabbat preparations and making Get Well Cards for their friend. Your videos show that they are being led by example of service to others is the way we show God’s love and grace. I loved your husband carrying the full laundry basket for you. He is what we call “ a good egg” in our neck of the woods. Have a truly blessed week and I will see you here on Thursday. Blessings! -Shawn

[@jaroffireflies]

Thank you so very much Shawn! I so very much appreciate your lovely comment! It’s always nice to have some affirmation that I’m doing ok with this motherhood thing :)

[@shawnrdavis1010]

Chana, you are an amazing mom! Us mommas have to encourage each other. It is the hardest and MOST important job we have. God has entrusted His most precious gifts to us!

[@ChoochooseU]

I love being privileged to have an inside view of your life and family because it’s so beautiful to witness the family growing up and becoming a working unit that accomplishes tasks together. Oh and the kiddo packing for themselves is an excellent way to again accomplish the task and allow them more responsibility and it’s certainly an educational opportunity.

He makes us individual bags outside our door. Our disabled dr doesn’t have it and he’s been caring for her. He is negative as well. A little dose pf Chana always makes me smile.😊. I hope you had a wonderful, restful Shabbat.

Always nice to get a glimpse of the kids. They are cute. Nice of your husband to help out with the laundry basket. My sons loved homemade chicken tenders and mashed potatoes for dinner!

Hi Chana!! That laundry pile reminded me of doing laundry for 8 of us that I was giggling. Now just about all of our children are grown and out of the house. Doing 2 loads a week seems so easy now. I always said though that BARUCH HASHEM I had so much laundry because little people filled my home and heart. Not everyone is so fortunate. Looking forward to hearing all about your new baby when it's due. So excited for you and your husband after Yom Kippur. Be blessed.

[@jaroffireflies]

Thank you Phyllis! As someone who has dealt with infertility, I wanted a messy house and laundry so bad! A decade later i have to sometimes remind myself though how much I wanted this lol

[@phyllismandelbaum5550]

I enjoy watching your beautiful children be so helpful. How wonderful! I especially love how the littlest one carries each plate to the table, (on his head). I had a similar method when I was a child, and absolutely hated setting the table! Another beautiful day.

I so enjoy watching/listening to your videos when I'm either studying or planning lessons (I'm both a student and a teacher). Your cheerfulness rubs off on me and I find myself smiling instead of yelling in frustration.

[@jaroffireflies]

Thank you so much for sharing that with me :) I am so happy to hear that

[@shirlynssleeve4661]

Can’t help but be excited for you to have a newborn. Having 3 helping hands will be a blessing. My children are 11 months apart & honestly never knew what it was like to have a baby in the house. Had 4 of our 10 Grandchildren the last 4 days and my Mr & I needed a nap. It was not so much anything physical but being mentally alert, aware & on call 100% of the time day and night was exhausting!

[@jaroffireflies]

Thank you for your kind words! I bet that was exhausting to have the grandkids for that long :) How wonderful to get that time with them!

[@julielanderjensen480]

He would write the transcripts out- write the words from all those beeps and stuff. Unfortunately it cost him his hearing today, (I guess the constant beeping in his ears) but it was a cool job! He enjoyed it.
