My son is gone, he was replace by a Yeshiva Bochur
We sent our son off to Yeshiva in Ellul and he came back for Succos. We sent him back after Sukkos and someone new came back for Chanukah. I am not sure yet but I think I like the new kid better. Yeah I miss the old one and after three days he was fighting with the other kids again, but not as much and not as often and most importantly not with as much enthusiasm.
It is amazing how quickly a kid can change. Although he is only a couple of hours away we did not see him for almost six weeks and I just could not beleive how he has grown (yes in all ways). I took him to see my parents before Shabbos and my father said he would not have recognized him if he bumped into him on the street. My mother says my father is crazy.
When we sent him away we were not sure how he would like being away and living in a dorm and eating yeshiva food. We said "if he makes it till Chanukah he will be OK".
When we sent him away we were not sure how we would like having him away. We said "if we make it till Chanukah we will be OK".
Never did we imagine that by Chanukah after three days at home he would be looking forward to go back.
What a humbling experience.
What a rewarding experience.
