I'd like to share a heartwarming story that happened in our home not long ago . . .
(See the glossary at the bottom for definitions of Hebrew terms.)
The Yad
One of my sons has a fascination with sifrei Torah. He has two kid-sized Torahs, and we even made an Aron Kodesh to house them. He dons a tallis that he borrowed from my linen closet (otherwise known as a flat sheet), sets up a makeshift bima, and reads from the Torah. Sometimes he even calls up one of his brothers for an aliyah!
