Mazel Tov!

Mazel tov to all of us for all these wonderful simchas!!!!! Kein Yirbu (or to be grammatically correct, kein tirbenna)!

You’re talking to all of us or to the simchos?

Thank you!! I’m gonna need all the Brochos I can get! (forgot to mention, she’s from abroad… double the fun!)

Thank you. And yes, that’s what I meant ‘double the fun!’. (It’s probably going to be overseas, maybe some here will have a hookup – oversee!)

I’m just coming back from the initial party/ lchaim/ vort/ tnoim (hence the quiet here in the CR!) Now we have to try to get a whole Froggie family over. There’s a word for that. I think they say YIKES!!!

Mazel Tov!

My daughter gave birth to my first grandchild – a boy – last week!! There will hopefully also be in a pidyon haben for him, the first in my extended family.

Auf simchos for everybody!

Mazel Tov Nechomah!! Wonderful news! You should have many, many more simchos.

Mazel Tov to the participants of the Dirshu mishna brura yomi program on finishing chelek aleph

My son got married here in EY last week. It was B”H a gorgeous chasuna. So many people I knew & didn’t. IY”H by all of you – simchos bkorov and lots of nachas from your children.

Thank you. I owe you a belated one as well. May there be many simchas in Klal Yisroel.

DY: Mazel Tov.

What do you get a mazal tov for?

Mazal Tov LF 🙂

You know, I was thinking, it would be really funny if I get engaged to someone (IYH) and find out that he’s in the CR. I wonder if that has ever happened to any of the CR posters?

But his wife doesn’t post – only he does. And he could have started after they were married.

okay, but that could be true of anyone. Maybe your wife posts too.

Thanks to all for the good wishes, and good job, Mammele, on figuring it out.

As I recall, my most recent subtitle was not nearly as flattering as what you (sort of) remember (which I never had).

Mammele, I appreciate the compliment, but knowing how to Google ? talmid chochom.

“And sorry for being such a nag. Hope you’re not playing me (and all of us) though… I’m not good at chess.”

What? Where did chess come into this?

oh well, I started to get excited that I finally have someone to play chess with..

oh my gosh.. I am so excited! MAZEL TOV! That is such good news!!!

I guess I can’t ask you any of the usual questions (what’s her name? Where is she from? How old is she? What does she do? etc.)

So we’ll just have to leave it at: Mazel Tov! and you should be zoche to build a bayis neeman b’Yisrael!!

Thanks for letting us know!

Thanks so much lightbrite and Lilmod Ulelamaid!

LU although I can’t share the details, I have some fact you and others might find of interest.

I posted a question here in the past about whether it was OK for me (an introvert) to turn down extroverts simply for being extroverts. So the girl I got engaged to eventually isn’t an introvert in any way. We are similar in many ways though. It turns out you can’t really define the whole person simply by their level of extroversion.

Another interesting fact is that although both of us have been in shiduchim for quite a lot of time, we didn’t have to “settle” in any way. We are both absolutely happy.

Mazal Tov, LF!

Mazel Tov!!!!

LF – Mazel Tov! That’s so exciting!! And it’s such a zchus that your sons keep marrying Israeli girls!

Hatzlacha funding the trip! Sorry I can’t help…still trying to figure out how to pay for my own trip to the US….if you come up with any ideas, please let me know…

Thank you!! אי”ה by you בקרוב! (and don’t forget to post the good news here!) I don’t know your name, but HaShem does, that’s the main thing that counts, he knows exactly whom I’m having in mind when I bench you!! Nissan is an especial time for good tidings… especially for Shidduchim (מושיב יחידים ביתה מוציא אסירים בכושרות).

HaShem… I realize the Chassodim you did, and do for us, IN SPITE of by behavior. I realize it is entirely a מתנת חנם, through and through. No, there is NO WAY I can be תולה on anything I have EVER done, rather it’s an undeserving חסד in spite of my ways… Please רבונו של עולם, make our Simchah more complete by having others being helped out in their מצבים, in their time of need, each to what he or she may need to make them truly happy.

If you really want to daven for me with my real halachic name, I can give it to you through the mods. There’s no reason I can’t tell you my halachic name, since you wouldn’t be able to figure out who I am, but I wouldn’t be comfortable writing it for the whole world.

I never really understood the whole name thing.

It is quite clear that ideally you should mention the name and mothers name, or at least some form of definitive information, he davening for someone. What is the neccesity for this? If I just have someone in mind, why is the tefillah any less powerful?
