So it is Sunday evening and it is quiet...okay except for the hum of the dishwasher and washing machine which has been running all day. I don't have the Bar Mitzvah notebook out in front of me crossing things off the list. I'm not checking any lists to make sure I didn't forget something. I'm just trying to clean up....which will take another day to wash everything and put everything back in it is rightful place.
Now it is time to reflect...It was a beautiful Bar Mitzvah. Yes, it was a HUGE amount of work but I'm so happy BA"H with the way everything turned out. MN did a GREAT job with his leining, made us proud when he made his siyum. It was a great Shabbos. Family & family traveled from afar to be with us. We counted and had representation from 8 states...not too shabby.
When I invited in towners for Shal Seudos I said it takes a village to raise a child. I truly mean it. Everyone who came over Shabbos to celebrate with us had a influence on MN's life. I was touched by the outpouring of help I got. Friends offered to help with whatever I needed. Whether it was housing people or cooking I knew I could count on my friends to help with whatever I needed.
So I want to say Thank YOU !!! Thank you for being there for my family to celebrate our simcha with us. May we continue to share in simchas with each other.
