To continue our Christian versus Jewish discussions, Eitan recently became aware that Rich’s parents are not Jewish.
Eitan: “What holidays do Ooma and Oompa have?”
Mama: “Well, they don’t have as many as us. Ooma and Oompa celebrate Christmas and Easter”
Eitan: “Keep telling me”
Mama: “That’s it”
*shocked silence* Note: this was during the Days of Awe
… several days go by …
Eitan: “Ooma and Oompa don’t celebrate Shabbat?”
Mama: “No, they don’t have Shabbat”
Eitan: “That makes me sad for them”
Mama: “It warms my heart that you love Shabbat so much”
Papa: “It warms my heart that you are thinking about how other people feel!”
