Tot Shabbat

Once a month our synagogue has a shabbat service specifically for Tots (aka toddlers) called "Tot Shabbat". Pennington has been going for the last few months. The first month he slept through the entire service. The second month he cried about half of the time and acted like he didn't really want to be there. On Friday night Johnny and I took Pennington to his third Tot Shabbat (Hanukkah service) and he did amazing. Pennington didn't cry at all. He was awake the entire time and quietly observed everything that was going on around him. The service consisted of singing Hanukkah songs such as "I have a little Dreidel" and Rabbi Laura tell the story of Hanukkah using stuffed animals such as Elmo to be Judah Maccabee. Below is a picture of Daddy and Pennington and Rabbi Laura and Pennington.
