Last year Kate Emerson attended a Jewish pre-school in our area. In fact, although we are Christian, all 3 of the peanuts have attended this pre-school at some point. It is a warm and wonderful place and my children learned a lot about the Old Testament there. They also all learned the Ha-Motzi. Ha-motzi is a Hebrew blessing over bread. This year Kate is at a Catholic Montessori school and I know she will soon forget her Hebrew blessing so I wanted to get it on video before that happens....I am sad that I do not have this from Will and Harry too.
This video reminds me of funny story. Several years ago when Will was Kate's age we had one of our favorite parish priests over for dinner. He asked Will to say grace and although Will knew how to say a Christian grace, he said the ha-motzi instead. Luckily, the priest was quite impressed and we all had a good laugh:)
To my Jewish friends, I hope you had a peaceful Yom Kippur.
Kim and Kate!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat JOB!
I think ALL 3 of your children are so very talented!
I love the fact that she is knowledgable of the OLD testament as well as the NEW one too!
And too we all have to live under the whole Bible as well!
Awesome awesome awesome talents at such a little heart's age!
Just to think you will have this forever for her to view!
Loved the sotry as well about your son
Will saying grace in Hebrew.
Priceless precious!
See your children will one day see that you "so did" indeed more for them than just take care of them!
What a blessed mother and father they have been given!
PS! love Kate's orange bow too!
She looks so cute!

Good job Kate! So cute! Lily sings the Hamotzi every day at preschool, but she's not quite as good at it yet.
ReplyDeleteThis summer when she first started camp, she sang "Hamotzi lechem me'en ha'aretz, we give thanks to G-d for something" That still gives me a laugh!
Have a good week Kim!
Love this! I love her little voice and her excitement at the end, to see herself!
ReplyDeleteToo cute! Thanks for sharing! Kate's hair is really growing out fast - the short hair is really cute.

ReplyDeletePrecious! The boys I nannied for while I was in graduate school went to the Jewish Community Center for pre-school and because one of the boys had autism (he was non-verbal) I stayed with him on the days his therapists weren't with him. We sang that same grace before lunch each day! Thanks Kate for bringing back some memories and sharing your precious voice:)
