B"H Yisrael's class is making a Siyum on חמישה חומשי תורה in a week and a half- this is the culmination of three year's hard work, learning and constantly doing חזרה until the boys really know the material "inside out". Its amazing to see how well he really knows it, and the glow of satisfaction that radiates on his face when we test him and he knows the answers.
The Cheder makes a grand celebration in honor of the Siyum, in a fancy hall (with lots of speeches I'm sure!) and while we know that most of you can't come, we'll sure you'll be there in spirit! Stay posted for Nachas updates after the Siyum!
(Note to the Yerushalayim Aunts: Yisrael brought home extra invitations to mail to you....can you consider yourselves invited and I'll save the money for the postage? I don't think he really expects you to come, although I'm sure he'd be tickled pink if you actually did!)

Wow, what a tremendous milestone! Mazel tov to the mesayem and his parents and grandparents!
That really is a major nachas evening- amazing! (I, gulp, don't know if I've ever mamesh learned through every single parsha!)
I would love to come, really- who knows, maybe I'll be able to work something out?? Just hard timing...
