Recap: Evie’s mother informs her that they are moving to Utah and they’ll be staying with her Aunt Ruthie. Evie doesn’t want to move, but she does see this as an opportunity to ask Aunt Ruthie about her father.

Most of us are focused on getting to Pesach at this time of year. We are cleaning, shopping, cooking, and preparing for company with long task lists to accomplish. Our goal is coming to seder night with a chometz-free home, to tell the story of our redemption from Egypt and our formation as a holy nation with our generations at our sides. Our goal is to perform the mitzvos of the  night together with grandparents and grandchildren.
