We put up the menorahs today – all 13 of them including the 14th which is the electric one in the window. And Tin kept saying he didn’t want Hanukkah to be over. Duh, neither do I, how do you get over having all those candles lit every one of these dark nights that always come too soon to be put away. <\/p>\n

Tonight, instead, we had a special visit from Tin’s godfather’s parents, who came as they always do, bearing gifts – answering the question of what to do on the 9th night of Hanukkah – have visitors!<\/p>\n

Tomorrow is Evan’s homecoming anniversary, actually his father’s birthday as well, and so it was a special joy to have everyone here and reading the train book that his mother brought – one that is not a Thomas Train book but an actual children’s book about trains – no faces – no creeped out underlying moral message – just pure simple train fun. <\/p>\n

One sure way to beat the post-Hanukkah blues – be around people who love you and whom you love.<\/p>\n
