http://alizalibman.blogspot.com/2014/08/my-daughter-watched-frozen-and-now-she.html
Aliza Libman writes on . Friday, August 29, 2014. My daughter watched Frozen and now she won't stop talking about death. On our drive to camp last week, my three-year old interrupted the song "Do you want to build a snowman" with a startling pronouncement. Ima, if you and Abba die, I won't be sad. I'll take care of my baby sister.". Later that day, she shared with me her follow-up plan: If I die, she'll go to Cambridge to live with her aunt. I don’t know whether to blame. As adults, we’ve been rocked by ...

Aliza Libman writes on . Saturday, October 23, 2010. Corporate Rewards Programs: Not All Created Equal. My husband came home with a code for Hood cottage cheese rewards. After a trip to Stop and Shop last week, which is right about when I discovered that the corporate rewards world had hit oversaturation. I got into survey-based incentive programs early (I've been doing e-Rewards. In November '08, I didn't sign up until January 2010.

Aliza Libman writes on . Tuesday, June 30, 2009. Chefchaouen, Morocco: I flunked bribery AND negotiation. When you are in a taxi hurtling around mountainous curves at 60 k/h with a driver listening to the Koran on a cassette player, you have two choices:. 1 Hold on to the "Jesus" handle and pray that you don't die,. 2 Go with the flow - you're only in Morocco once. Chefchaouen, especially the pretty lake where the women do their washing and the lovely casbah and the awesome coffee, grew on me a lot. ...

http://alizalibman.blogspot.com/2010/06/on-extending-oneself.html
Aliza Libman writes on . Tuesday, June 22, 2010. My first foray into speechwriting occurred somewhere around May 2004, when I went to speak to a Hadassah luncheon in Toronto about the challenges facing students on campus. I still have a thank you note from them somewhere in my parents' basement. Later, I was ready to give my first major address since my bat mitzvah. The text is below the embedded slightly sketchy quality Youtube video. Take public speaking from Marjorie North. The first way I have found ...

http://alizalibman.blogspot.com/2011/03/on-childbirth.html
Aliza Libman writes on . Thursday, March 24, 2011. When Rena was born, I wanted to remember all the details, so I tried to record them as a note on my iPod. I went back and reread it, and had ended up with a dry list of facts I recorded between IVs, monitors and epidurals. Ari did a much better job, which Isis published today on their Parenting Starts Here. The surgery went really well. Shortly before the baby was delivered, Aliza said something along the lines of "okay, call it. Boy or girl? David Noble...

Aliza Libman writes on . Tuesday, August 24, 2010. Dear Fetus, you can come out of my womb if you promise not to lick the walls. I see them everywhere. Happy moms pushing strollers and fit pregnant women jogging, preparing their babies for all the advantages Brookline has to offer. I have taken to looking jealously at these happy families, wondering, "Where do they live? And of course, "Do they have any vacancies? Posted by Aliza @ 3:01 PM.

Aliza Libman writes on . Thursday, January 02, 2014. Waiting by the phone for school to be closed. When we went to sleep, the ground was clear. Within the next few hours, we'll be in the full grasp of what newscasters are calling alternately a snowstorm, a blizzard, a nor'easter, and of course, many other monikers I'd be familiar with if I was watching the news. I check my email again. Still nothing. Will she have school or not? And if she does have school, what will I do? Sometimes, however, we really d...
