How I wish now I had taken the oppertunity to snap a picture of the meal. There is a message behind the roast veggies, potatoe kugel, roast lamb and candels. Passover is more than the sum of its parts and much of my joy is slowing going through the imagery and feeling the joy and the sorrow of what transpired so long ago. A wish I have is to celebrate the Passover feast in Israel, Perhaps one day.
I believe the girls understood the message behind passover and hopefully understood it to be more than a simple story and a dinner as simply tradition. I can't imagine what it would have been like for the Israelites that night. How did they know to paint their post and lintel, did the message get out to each and every family, were there families who didn't believe...
Anyways it was a joy to celebrate and I enjoy so much of the passover foods.
There is freedom in Passover ... may each of you find freedom
You did an amazing job love . . . the girls really seemed to appreciate it as well. You did a wonderful job explaining it to them and there was such a peace about you as you shared. Thanks xo
ReplyDeletethat's sweet guy. I had never thought about how the Israelites would have felt. I just always assumed they all got the message and believed. Makes me think...thanks!
