Happy 90th Birthday to my beautiful mother, Shulamit Shimoni 🌹👑💝

Today, we celebrate a wonderful milestone and the life of a woman of incredible strength, love and true devotion. My mother is the very embodiment of Eshet Chayil, “A woman of valor whose worth is far above rubies” (Proverbs 31:10). Her resilience and optimism have been our source of strength and inspiration, guiding us through happy and very challenging times.

In Kabbalah, the number 90 symbolizes wisdom and peace, and in gematria, it is associated with the letter 'Tzadi', representing kindness and generosity—qualities that describe my mother perfectly, and are beautifully reflected in her name. Shulamit is derived from the Hebrew root Sh-L-M, meaning peace and wholeness. In Song of Songs, Shulamit appears as King Solomon’s beautiful beloved. According to Kabbalistic interpretations, Shulamit also symbolizes Jerusalem, which shares the same root and stands as our eternal symbol of peace and unity.

This week’s Torah portion, Chayei Sarah (חיי שרה), recounts the life of our matriarch Sarah, who, miraculously, gave birth to Isaac at the age of 90, and lived to 127—a story of hope, faith, resilience and renewal. Just like our maternal grandmother, Savta Sarah, who lived to the ripe age of 99 and had 99 offspring when she departed. The timing of this Haftora readying with Mom’s birthday is a beautiful message from Savta and a blessing for a long and fruitful life 🎂🥂🎈✨

On your birthday Ima, I wish you continued vitality, happiness, and much nachat 💝 We pray for peace in our beloved Israel, for the safety of our soldiers and the return of the hostages ✡🙏☮

Through highs and through lows
In sunshine or rain
You are my mom, my sister, my friend—
lifting me up through joy and through pain.
I love you so dear
I wish you were near
I think of you always
each day of the year.
