Happy Hanukkah

Last night we lit the first candles of Hanukkah. I love to do it-we have the Menorah in the Dining Room and I turn off the lights so people can see it from outside. It is really bright by the last night. Marc was holding Lucas and read the prayer while I lit the candles. Lucas was very interested in the lights and started to reach for them. Marc thought for a minute and said, "I guess he was little last year." I said he was-the first night of Hanukkah was the day Lucas had his hernia surgery. I remember Marc holding him in one arm while we lit the candles. We were all wiped from a long, emotional day, but I wanted to make sure we lit the candles before we all headed off to bed.

I can't wait for him to get old enough to spin the dreidel and win some gelt from his cousins! All he wants to do with it right now is put the dreidel in his mouth.

Happy Hanukkah Lucas:)
