Adina's report card

NINE A+s. That's right, NINE. Three A's. One A-, in PE. The teacher writes, "You have wonderful qualities and consideration, relate to every person with a smiling face, extend help to others and always do so pleasantly and happily. Very talented, invest in your studies, enrich the class with your knowledge and your understanding, and reach excellent conclusions. It's a pleasure to teach a wonderful student like you! About you, it is said, "Happy is she that bore you (from the Mishnah)" - continue to succeed!"

May our Adina continue to go from strength to strength, and may she continue to find joy in studying both Torah and general studies. You go girl!

Today's Ferryisms

Ferri: Mommy, one of these (the blocks) is missing. So I'll make something else.
Mommy: Great, Ferri! That's what we call being flexible! You are flexible in your guf (body) and neshama (soul).
Ferri: What's neshama?
Mommy, wondering how to handle this one for a four-year-old, especially while getting a baby dressed: Uhh, it's..
Ferri: It's the talking thing?

And thus Ferri summarizes two thousand years of Jewish philosophy.

We also had this morning:
Mommy: Today's Abba's birthday!
Ferri: No, yesterday was his birthday.
Abba: Yesterday was my birthday and today is my birthday.
Ferri: What, you were born on two days?

Adina's Foot

Yosef's Belt

Yosef passed his test and now has a white belt with a yellow stripe in Taekwondo. I went to the test...he looked very dangerous.
