Siddur Ceremony - Ari - January 2012

Dear Ari,

Wherever you are, wherever I am, you will always be my son whom I love.

May Hashem and our father’s watch over you.

May you enjoy happiness and health all the days of your life.

Be a good, compassionate, and integrous person of strong character. Don’t be timid.

Life isn’t always easy, but patience and courage will help you manage through the storm.

Go for your dreams, Set your sights on the stars and enjoy the treasures of each moment.

When you pray, mean it. Say it loud and believe what you say with pride.

Love, Abba
