The playlist of our lives

Thinking about leading Tot Shabbat this evening (service for little kids), I asked Xander if he had any requests for what we should sing.

He was quiet for a moment, thinking.

"Bim Bom, ABCs, Alef Bet Vet, and It's a Pirate's Life for Me," he said slowly.  "Those are the best ones."

Yes, they are, child.  I will do my best. :)

  1. Right on, Xander!!! That's a fan-tas-tic selection.

    Xander's has his Bubby's musical talent and his mom's gift for hitting the right note for every occasion.

    I will never forget the thrill I felt when, at Ari's first birthday party, after everyone had sung "Happy Birthday to You," Xander spontaneously broke out into "Yom Hoo-le-det Sa-meh-ach," carrying the crowd with him.

    Happy Tot Shabbat!!!!
