Kids at the Bris

I took Eliana, Jessa and Zev to a Bris yesterday. Eliana and Jessa were very excited to get to see a "little baby".

We arrived and they were not disappointed. Eliana said, "Aww, baby Micah is so cute. Look how little he is!"

I carefully chose a seat. One where we could see baby Micah, but not necessarily see all of the "action". I felt oh-so-smart as they placed baby Micah down on the pillow and the girls could see his head, but not much else. As the Mohel started his work, Eliana notices the scalpel and says "what is he cutting?"

I gave her a thoughtful, but correct reply and added, "it's the same thing that happened to Zev at his bris."

Not a second later, Zev says "What they cutting?"

Eliana immediately interjects with a high level of confidence, "its the same thing that happened to you are your bris."

Luckily, he accepted her answer as fact and let it go.
