Dear Meredith,

Thank you so much for sharing your experience regarding your son's Bar
Mitzvah. How wonderful that all of you could be present for him and help
acknowledge and celebrate his accomplishments, despite the difficult weather
you had. And what a great lesson you all got out of it. It was a real
testimony to his maturity and readiness to have his Bar Mitzvah. 

Congratulations to your son and to your family whom I'm sure are very proud.
And thanks for sharing your name. I love your email name and address and every
time I see it, I imagine you standing in front of a group of kids singing Bim
Bom and wildly waving flags and shouting and laughing....... but I'm so glad
to know you by your birth name now.

Regards,

Ellen Allard
Worcester, MA
P.S. By the way, in our house, we call an experience like you and your family
had, making lemonade our of lemons. It puts a nice spin on difficult 
circumstances.
