The Fro and His Grandma Lil #29 Chanukah

Jared Polin December 9, 2010 23

As a family we sat down to light the candles for the first night of Chanukah last week. Chanukah is always a fun time of year, you have candles, dradles, chocolate and songs.

Lil and I sit and discus the origins of Chanukah and Lil tells us what her Chanukah wish is for this year. Get your tissues at the end just in case you get a little emotional like Lil did.

Please Share and Enjoy:
