Naming Ceremony

Time flies. To honor the twins first ever birthday, we brought together family and friends for an official naming ceremony. Dani led the occasion in his own special way, regaling us with stories and lessons from Torah. It was a truly special day, as Kai Israel and Nadia Paulina accepted their names... Thanks to everyone who could make it.

Part of the naming ceremony included a "predetermination" ritual, where Kai and Nadia would let "fate" decide their future path in life. Like the infant dalai lama, who is discovered by the objects he chooses from those splayed out in front of him, the twins got to choose their future careers - Kai went with the calculator (science-geek) and compass (explorer); Nadia with the thimble (seamstress) and pocket-watch (track coach?)
