menorakkah


we celebrated at home last night, the first night of hanukkah, the festival of lights. it has been fun to watch suki experience the holiday traditions now that she is older. her imagination is so rich and everything is magical through her eyes. i love hearing her version of the stories we tell her.  



here a kitchen napkin first played the role of a baby that was tucked under her shirt. after it was "born" and coddled in her arms for a while, she transformed it in to a superhero cape.



the suki superhero stayed for the rest of the evening- lit the first candle of the menorah, listened to the prayer, sang along to this song, and played with her wooden hanukkah set juan and laura gave her last year.

p.s. yes, she did pick out her outfit.
