Rewards My Current Life

Right now, H is doing some bar mitzvah tutoring (right now, they're editing his drash) for a young man in the community. It's H's bar mitzvah gift for him, and they're working pretty happily. So I get a happy, well behaved, and intelligent 12 year old in our place on Sunday mornings. And he wants to do what he's doing, and it's just a lovely thing to see, after mostly hearing about H's 7th graders, who are well, a class full of 12 and 13 year olds, with all the insanity that that implies. So- here's a kid we're fond of, and his will be the first bar mitzvah that I'll be at since I was in high school where I actually know and care about the kid involved. Something about it makes me happy.
