This is a very Special time of the year. Not only because we are enjoying warmer weather and trying to warm up our soles from cold winter month- it's also time to come back to our beginning ,learn 'Passover story' allover again and find something new in it. To me this is time of the year when you are trying to assort all the laws and rules that you live by ,making adjustments for better life in the future.Every year I go back to my childhood memories ,when it was nearly impossible to find 'Matzah' in Kiev -city I was born in.This was the time of the year when my father made special trip to far suburbs to the 'secret' house that was making Matzah. He would be waiting in line for hours taking a number in line ,hiding near by ,so their neighbours would not be suspicious. If such house was found by 'friends' -they would burn it down,so no more Matzah can be produced.That Matzah was very special to us -it made us think about all the obstacles in life we had to go though and wish for freedom of chose and free future.
As a special gift to our hero Sammy ,we brought hand made 'Shmurah Matzah' from our resent trip from NY-they say hand made Matzah is made with a' Mitzvah 'in mind and eating it has a profound effect on your soul.
After that trip I knew in the back of my mind that we should see some positive changes soon.
We did not have to wait very long. Yesterday,our nurse ask Sammy a question: Are you hungry?-Sammy reply was -YE! I did not believe it , I ask to repeat that question again and Sammy's answer was-YE! again! To add to my happy moment Sammy said 'HI' to some one passing by. This is a miracle! It's happening right here ,right now!
May this Passover bring the best in all of us ,may we be rewarded with good health and fortune,may we remember to share our meal with a stranger that will enjoy this Seder in your company instead of being alone. May we do just one more 'good deed' before this holiday begins. Have a great Passover -G-D Bless you ALL and your Family's.
Sincerely , Chaina GelenaZeltser and Hayem Shmuel ben Chaina.

that is great. baruch hashem chaim shmuel can speak. that is amazing. before long he'll be telling you stories and stories with hashem's help. may this month continue to bring us more and more miracles spiritually and physically
this is a real seder story live. the seder is all about asking, and retelling. there are 4 sons, there are 4 questions allwith much esoteric meaning. one child needs to be encouraged to ask, the other child is innately curious, the other child is wise, the seder is about provoking questions and curiosity in our children. way to go chana, u r encouraging positive responses from your child. coinciding with the seder
our little hero is beginning to tell, and we will soon hear it all from him, as it says"from the mouth of babes"
Ye!!!!!!
may chaim shmuel go from strength to strength
thats great. hi means hello but also means life. may chaim shmuel get stronger and stronger in his life with hashem's help
