Dreidel Dreidel Dreidel
Mr. Rosenberg came with us to pre-school today. He folded his 6'4" self into one of the little chairs and told the story of Hanukkah. He read "The Latke Who Couldn't Stop Screaming" and made funny faces and silly sounds at all of the screaming parts. He brought his guitar and taught everyone "The Driedel Song." He sang "Hanukkah, Oh Hanukkah" in a serious key. He sang a blessing so we could hear what Hebrew sounds like.
After he was done, Suzanne, the other mom in class, asked if I had just fallen in love with Mr. Rosenberg all over again. My answer was yes.
Very, very yes.

ReplyDeleteYou'd have been a fool not to.
ReplyDeleteAaaaw! I'm all smiles now.
ReplyDeleteHe is darling, that Mr. Rosenberg. I predict many refallings in love over the years.
ReplyDeleteVery cute! I love how tall he is sitting in that teeny, tiny chair :)
ReplyDelete*sigh* LOVE this post and know exactly what you mean! it's easy to fall in love all over again during moments just. like. these! :)

After reading your post, my heart feels as though it has grown in size. I think I will do something nice for my hubby today.
ReplyDeleteHe sounds like a good man, that Mr. Rosenberg.
ReplyDeleteJ.P. is in love with him too. Oh, and with the candy you sent home in his blue bag.
ReplyDeleteI love that Mr. Rosenberg! And I had no idea Latkes were that angry.

Awwwwwwwwwwwwww!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad we married him!
ReplyDeleteIf I promise not to fall in love with him, can I borrow him for an encore performance in my son's kindergarten class? May I request Adam Sandler's "Hanukkah Song"? Can I make Challah if I'm not Jewish? Would it count if it was gluten free and not made by a Jew?
ReplyDeleteDeal breaker might be the singing in Hebrew in the wiggly kids. I just might fall in love, after all.
So romantic!!!
ReplyDeleteI love all of your posts, but this one might be my favorite one ever. Fabulous man you have in that Mr. Rosenberg there.
ReplyDeletePinch-pinch goes my heart... how I love you, woman. All three of you. xox
ReplyDeleteDon't make me cry like this! I'll get my latkes all soggy.
ReplyDeleteSeriously, I love this. xoxo
What a sweetheart! I would have too!
ReplyDeleteDid you get your verys from Bob or he from you? I'm just trying to distract myself so I can stop being misty over here. Aw. Now on to google that Munchian latke book.
