I remember the Passover Seder as a very special time. My brothers and I got new clothes that we had to save specially until that evening; this heightened our sense of anticipation and symbolized the special nature of this holiday. I can still envision preparing for Passover in the Orthodox home of my childhood: I remember the frenzied work of emptying out all our cabinets, packing up the food we ate for the other 357 days of the year and lining all the cabinets, the stove, and the refrigerator with extra thick aluminum foil.

Thought provoking post, Donna!
Donna, this post strikes home with me. My daughter will be independent and off at college next Fall and I so worry about how she will be treated. I know the Lord will watch over her, but I worry anyway. Thank you for sharing this, Donna!
