momfluential: Boys in the belfry! These two were feeling pretty powerful after they got the chance to ring the bells at the YMCA in Jerusalem. The 1.5 ton bell was still reverberating when I shot this pic and the boys were still buzzing as well. They will always rememb

momfluential: I think my shadow slipped off on its own, Peter Pan style, to linger amongst the stalls of the shuk. You might see it flitting about near sunset. I really will need to go back soon to retrieve it. #wanderlusting #passportready #passportexpress #iwillbrb #
momfluential: Here's Coco. She's my daughters cat. Coco doesn't like me. She only loves @marlymaso & @hunhoneyb. Every time I walk by it's like, oh... it's YOU. She's giving me a complex. She's so #mondaysbelike. 🙀💩☕️ #catspotting #catsofinstagra
momfluential: Masses of #purple #wisteria made me so happy in #Jerusalem last month. Now that I am back in #california it's the giant (exploding with purple flowers) #jacaranda trees making my heart thump harder. That much purple seems preposterous, but nature likes to
momfluential: Someone has a plan for sleeping in today. I hate to tell her I gotta bail. Things to do, stuff to see and closets to clean! #lazy #caturday #persiancat #whitecat #catsofinstagram #catspotting #kittykitty #petfluential
momfluential: There's a bunch of sunken ships to explore in the Avalon Dive Park, like an underwater playground. I wish I wasn't such a big chicken. I'm dying to see it but maybe by remote control submarine drone. I am phobic about diving. I guess we all have our limit
momfluential: #flashbackfriday to last month in #Jerusalem. #shabbatshalom ! I actually shot this lucky candid near the #kotel on a weekday over the holiday break. I should note that it's considered very rude to photograph worshippers in the Jewish quarter on Shabbat w
momfluential: Is it summer yet? It's been more pumpkin latte than dole whip in #socal lately and I'm ready for warmer days. Glad for the rain but could do with a little less #maygray ⛅️☁️ #californiacoast #california #catalinaisland #visitcatalina #av
momfluential: I love my #bike so much. I wish I had better ops to ride it in my daily life. It's more of a beach town and urban ride than a suburbs and strip mall one. Sadly I don't live in the most bike friendly place. Poor neglected bike with basket full of produce m
momfluential: Trying to stay focused in the middle of the week is always an issue when you've been island hopping and hopping between work, mom and extracurriculars like I have this week. Who am I kidding... every week! But I love my jobs and my roles, even though the
momfluential: Left a little #hashtagrocks magic behind on #catalinaisland. Hope we see it again in the feeds someday 💙 We had such a nice stay at this hotel. Everything was perfect.
momfluential: The Carnival Inspiration is in Catalina Island today which makes for awesome people watching. Love all the #selfie takers. #cruiselife #visitcatalina #visitcalifornia #familytravel #travelwithkids #carnivalinspiration #catalinaisland #travelfluential
momfluential: I believe this is the Lion of Judah painted by @solomonsouza on the corrugated metal shop doors of one of the shops in #mahaneyehuda My son Leo needed a pic here, naturally. If you want to see the many many fantastic doors & shutters here, the best time
momfluential: I never grow sick of the sight of the Casino in #Avalon on #catalinaisland. If time travel was a thing, I'd stand right here and zap back to the 1930s and party with Cecil B DeMille, Louis B Mayer & Samuel Goodwyn. There would be big bands playing in the
momfluential: What will be this year's #BohemianExperience? Making summer travel plans and having a hard time deciding between so many places we want to return to. Makes me want to pause and prolong the delicious decision, like @hunhoneyb paused to savor in the middl
momfluential: Channeling some peaceful vibes from this golden hour #reflectionpic. So much to get done this week but still clinging to my #zen 🌞
momfluential: I love going places with my beautiful blue #bike but today we narrowly avoided disaster. We came to #catalinaisland with our bicycles but after some time in storage our tires had gone flat. We got to the terminal and started to pump and BOOM 💥
momfluential: Stormy day in a pretty #port. Just arrived at #avalon on #catalinaisland 🌎❤️🌊
momfluential: #cats and colorful #plates are two of my favorite things. But a #jerusalem store with a sleepy feline greeter has me at #meow. Happy #caturday! 😻
momfluential: What was your first job? The first business you started? The summer I was 16 I went to #israel and fell in love with the region and travel in general. I made a few friends that taught me how to make jewelry, just like these earrings. By the next summer
momfluential: Pretty sure there's a genie in here somewhere. Which lamp to rub? And if a genie popped out, what would you wish for? I'd wish to go back, to #jerusalem someday soon with some great #travelblogger friends. Two more wishes left. Your turn!
momfluential: Current mood. #dreamy. So many ideas playing on the white screen of my imagination. I just want to curl up and cuddle with them all.

momfluential: It's a #beautifulday to lounge by the spa pool @montagelaguna. Or just come down for a stroll. #lagunabeach sure is a #beatifulplace ❤🌴🌞🌊
momfluential: Wherever there's a lonely #streetcat that needs petting, that's where you will find my kids. They have no ability to resist. Nor do I, actually. Which is why I always carry hand sanitizer. My son walked around #Jerusalem this time with cans of cat food an
momfluential: I like big #trees. 🌳🌳🌳 This giant is one of my favorites on my regular #hike route. It is covered with knarled #eyes and keeps watch on the woods. It's hard to get a sense of the scale but it's so big that whe
momfluential: Saying #jerusalem to me is like saying #onceuponatime . It the vortex of stories throughout time, faith and culture that keeps piling me and so many others back. And this also makes it my favorite place in the world to photograph so I hope you won't mind
momfluential: No LA kid event is complete without celeb sightings & our crew was happy to meet the kids from Fresh Off the Boat today at #weallplay2017 #giftofplay #mydayinla
