Adam's Bar mitzvah last saturday

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

Just wanted to update all of you. About a year ago, Adam began studying for

his bar mitzvah. For those who don't know what it is in the Jewish religion

when a boy becomes 13 they go thru a training of prayers. They are

considered a man and go thru a hard service that they must learn. He has a

hard time articlulating and reading/decoding words because he has apraxia. I

didn't know how he was going to read english let alone read the

transliterations of hebrew. He really did an outstanding job and everyone

was moved and overwhelmed, including my husband and that says alot for him

to say that. It was a shortened service only 45 min, but I was so proud of

him and so was he. My family has posted some pictures on facebook.
