First Day of School News

In honor of today being the first day back at school for my big kids, here's a fun current event. But first, an update from yesterday:

Article: Yesterday we spoke about Syrian rebels asking for allies. Here's the udpate: The U.S. has ammased a fleet of ships in the Mediterranean Sea and is waiting for the green light from President Obama, who is waiting to confirm from UN inspectors whether chemical weapons were used. Once he gives OK, the U.S. will invade Syria.

And now for some fun: 

Celebrity Visits Kosher Restaurant Wearing Kippa
Summary of Article: Harry Styles, of the super popular British boys band One Direction, visited the NY kosher restaurant, Le Marais, last week. He was wearing a blue knitted kippa with his name on it (see link for picture). He also has a tattoo with his sister's name, Gemma, written in Hebrew.  However, he is not Jewish! For one of their songs that your kids will likely recognize, click here.
