Jacob read Torah for the first time today. A milestone. It is so easy to forget these fleeting moments. Thoughts/moments I'd like to remember:
Waking up in the morning hearing him chanting his parsha, practicing diligently.
His pride and excitement at the accomplishment.
The lessons of learning Torah are many. I hope they follow him for the rest of his life and I hope he gets curious about the meaning of it all. I realize that in my efforts to transmit religion to my children, much can get lost in the process. I don't ever want them to feel a disconnect between their spirituality and Jewish identity and how it relates to our family and WHY it is so important to me.
