#Emptybeds: Sweet Dreams my Love

As the sun sets and stars fill the twilight sky, parents around the world find a cherished few minutes to disconnect from daily distractions and focus on their children. Each bedtime routine is different but tends to include some combination of songs, stories and prayers. At a recent rally to free the hostages, Rachel Goldberg, mother of Hersh Goldberg-Polin, shared her routine with the crowd. Concerned about what nighttime feels like for the kids being held hostage, Rachel recounted that her lullaby “always helped Hersh sleep well. Maybe he’s singing it to the other children.”
