Does Size Really Matter?

One month to go and we still can’t decide on a sukkah. But I think we’ve agreed that it doesn’t have to be that big, because even if you have a ton of people over (which we won’t do this year, anyway), you don’t have to fit them all in there at once. Smaller also means easier to put up and, let’s face it, smaller is cheaper.

Meanwhile, my four-year-old son received a free copy of Sholom Sesame’s “Monsters in the Sukkah” on DVD today from the PJ Library. How perfect! He got to see what I’ve been talking about and I think he’s starting to get excited about building and decorating a sukkah. It really reminded me of the biggest motivation I have to do this—creating wonderful Jewish memories for my kids.
