The family traveled north to Natick for Rosh Hashana. Since Marni is in the middle of her "girlie-girl gone wild" period, I didn't hold out much hope that we would actually spend a lot of time in services. Stella and Lisa headed to the pre-school services where Stella actually participated! Nana, Papa, Marni and I headed to the main services. The Tasmanian Devil behaved herself for at least 20 minutes before getting cranky. Then she was banished to the lawn. But while she was in services, she entertained everyone around her for several rows. Day 2 was similar to day 1. Stella started in pre-school services (at her request). Marni behaved herself in the main services until we split just before the Rabbi's sermon. All in all, not nearly as traumatic as I expected.
