Last week

This past week was jammed packed! Ean had his first day of preschool, which he loves! He would go to school everyday if he could. He asks me every morning if he has school.

We went to Nana's house on Thur. for Rosh Hashanah to celebrate with Family. In Hebrew, Rosh Hashanah means, "head of the year" or "first of the year." Rosh Hashanah is commonly known as the Jewish New Year. The common greeting at this time is L'shanah tovah ("for a good year"). This is a shortening of "L'shanah tovah tikatev v'taihatem", which means "May you be inscribed and sealed for a good year." (For those of you who didn't know what Rosh Hashanah meant). Ean received his first shofar from Nana. The shofar is a ram's horn which is blown somewhat like a trumpet. One of the most important observances of this holiday is hearing the sounding of the shofar.


On Friday Ean, Nana Jeanne, cousin Nancy and I went to the big E while Adam stayed back with Nana and helped her cook. Uncle Andrew was working at the Massachusetts building and he got to break away and have lunch and go on a few rides with us. All and all we had a great weekend and I am pooped!
