Famille Du Pentium

Here we are, at a time where we think about the miracle that occurred when the Maccabees overtook the Seleucid empire and rededicated the Holy Temple of Jerusalem.  The story tells us that, despite our own troubles today, there have been tougher fights that we have won, and harder obstacles that we have overcome.

We started today a bit unprepared.  I had not gone to the store to buy candles,  but like the Maccabees a miracle occurred and we found some old Hanukkah candles, buried in a cabinet from years past.  So the lights went on, and presents were opened, and pictures were taken.  Well, I don’t think the Maccabees took pictures.  But you get the idea.

Happy Hanukkah!
