Welcome To The World

Welcome to the world!
You are so small.
People make such a fuss!
I don’t always understand why!
I think I will take care of you and play with you sometimes, because I am big.
I hope you like me and that you learn to say my name.
Sometimes you pull my hair, but I do not mind, unless you pull it very hard.
Sometimes I will fight with you because you want my toys.
I hope you will not mind.
Sometimes I will be angry at Mommy or Daddy because they spend too much time with you
I hope you will forgive me.
Thank you God, for little fingers and little toes, just like mine.
Thank you God, for arms that are large enough to hold one more.
Thank you, God, for a love that is big enough to include my brother and me.

Why make an account?

Because why use any of your precious brain cells to remember where you kept those great readings that you’ll use someday at Jeffrey’s B Mitzvah? Make an account, keep the readings there. Easy peasy. The only thing you’ll need to remember is your password, and from personal experience that’s hard enough.
