Baby Talk

So out-of-the-blue Beernut asks about the party we are going to have when Baby (aka “Peach”) is on its 8th day.

We should have a cake that says “Welcome to our family.”

That’s a great idea, I respond.

I know…we should have peaches because that’s our special name for the baby while it’s in your tummy. And Jordan Almonds too, of course.

Of course.

You know, we should also get the leaf for the tree at the party too.

We have a recent tradition at our shul that at each Family Service, we honour anyone who has put a new leaf up on our Simcha Tree during the past month. For some reason, Beernut has really taken to this new tradition and has been anticipating the right moment to honour the birth of our latest addition.

It’s nice to know that he’s been paying attention 😉
