A Letter for Abba (Everyone else, skip to the next post)

Dear Abba,

Until I became a father, I never realized how much you taught me about how to raise a son. I have found that everything I do with Akiva, from baby talk to cute nicknames, singing and the "ah-ooo" trick , I learned from you. And when I picture us in the future, everything I think of doing with him - teaching him to swim, learning chumash, navi, and mishnayos, making him mow the lawn, building Succah - all of these are experiences that stick out vividly in mind because of the love and dedication that you invested in them when doing them with me.

Love,

Yaakov
