What a cutie BA”H! He looks so intent on that car he’s playing with.
Thanks for including my post, and Shabbat Shalom!
You’re welcome Mrs.S.
Oh, I love those little trucks! I would enjoy playing with them, too.
Shabbat Shalom, and thank you for the link.
I read Rabbi Yoffie’s article. I have attended funerals (and other events) where the rabbi makes comments, and it is clear he doesn’t know the family that well. Sometimes it makes me cringe. Conversely, I have heard some members of the community or my own relatives speak beautifully and with full knowledge of how to give a hesped. The difference? Many people in the Orthodox Jewish community have extensive Jewish education.
Thank you for the feedback Leora. I hope not too many funerals are as frustrating as the one mentioned in the article.
Shabbat Shalom! My oldest son would have a blast with those trucks, maybe even daddy too. 🙂
Eventhough the trucks are old ones, they are always popular with little boys, and some girls too.
oh sweet boy! love that serious little face!!
