Ma'ayan says: Hiya!
Karen and I are in Teaneck with Offspring #2, her wonderful husband, and our granddaughter Ma'ayan Ariel.
Ma'ayan says: “Now I'm famous!”
We wish a beautiful Shabbat and a joyous Moed to all our friends.

Comments
Seraphic Secret is private property, that's right, it's an extension of our home, and as such, Karen and I have instituted two Seraphic Rules and we ask commentors to act respectfully.
1. No profanity.2. No Israel bashing. We debate, we discuss, we are respectful. You know what Israel bashing is. The world is full of it. Seraphic Secret is one of the few places in the world that will not tolerate this form of anti-Semitism. That's it. Break either of these rules and you will be banned.
Kiss those cheeks immediately! : ) Multiple times please.

Ma'ayan Ariel is a miniature version of Offspring #2.
Enjoy her...and don't forget to take a photo or two of her toesies and/or footwear. :)

Ahh - the YU post graduate Married dorms-west.
I spent some time there as a single and then got married and found a better looking roomate :)
I would go to the Pasta Factory for dinner Motzai Shabbat or Sunday evening if you can. They have a succah (sukkah?) and their food is great. I am not getting paid for the endorsement.
email me if you have any other Teaneck questions.
Shabbat Shalom,
Aharon

Oh, she's so beautiful! Children are truly divine gifts. May you have traveling mercies and protection.

A beautiful name for a beautiful child.
Good Moed, Good Shabbos, Good Yomtov when it comes again!

Everyone:
We thank you all for your generous comments. Ma'ayan is also deeply appreciative and has offered to sell her autographed photo for a dollar a pop:-)

Ohhhhh, lucky Grandpa!!
My darling just turned two years old - she lives 14 hours away, which isn't fair.
Today, her mother (and my favorite daughter) taped her singing Happy Birthday to her Papa, and posted it on their family blog.....(sigh)
You can't see it, as it's family only, but take my word for it - you have wonderful things coming your way with that darling girl......
Happy Sabbath

Those eyelashes! Wow.
Robert, I have to tell you that this photo made me rather choked up. The main reason: I can see you in Ma'ayan's smile. The resemblance - seeing you reflected in the face of this child - really is something wonderful. What a gift she is.

I bet Ma'ayan and her parents get stopped on the street all the time by admirers. What a cutie!
When I was in Teaneck several years ago, my favorite place was the Lazy Bean Cafe. Highly recommended.
