Today, a few words about Abigail.
At the seder, Abigail said: "No fair. Why does G-d get to speak with Moses?"
Sweet Abigail, as the youngest, wants to make sure she gets to do what the big kids get to do. If the big kids get media time, you can be sure she will ask why she can't as well.
Abigail is hilarious. After the seders, she starts to say a prayer every time she nursed. She'd say: "Baruch Atah Adonai, Elohenu melech Haolam, Boobi, Boobi, Boobi".
She has been asking questions about what is real and what isn't. She asked if monsters are real, and I explained that they are not. Then she asked if lions are real, and when I said yes, she tightened her grip around me. I explained that they only live in zoos or far away, but she asked if one could escape. Then she asked if tigers are real, and then snakes. Each time she got more worried, even though I tried to explain that these animals do not live near us!
Tonight she watched a cartoon movie with her older siblings about animals that talked. When I was putting her to bed, she asked if animals can speak. I explained that they couldn't.
Sweet Abigail!
