Hey Spencer!!!!
I am so psyched that you’ve finally made it! Your big day (erm, weekend) is finally here and those of us who’ve been on the ride with you are so proud and excited. Since I’m not even a little Jewish and never got one, it’s been fascinating to read and we’re all so psyched.

So don’t know if you’ve heard through the grapevine but I’ve been down in Texas helping take care of my mom as she goes through cancer treatment, so I won’t be able to make it. :-( But Julia will be there and will bring all of our love for you and Grandpa Pedro. Please give him a big hug for me too and hug yourself for me as well.

Congrats. Today you are a man! Well, almost.
Much love to you and family from Houston,
patrick
PS: If you haven’t heard it yet, give a spin to Julia Sweeney’s “Letting Go of God” on the iTunes Store. You’ve still got a whole day (I think)!!

Be’hatzlacha! You seem totally prepared and more importantly, you seem like a level-headed and kind kid-almost-man.

My friend and I rotfloled when we saw that, and we’ve been going “FUSH AND CHUPS!” ever since. :) “Dreyaas!”
I’m uber stressed, too, but I guess we all have to go through it sometime.
Okay, “I think of you more as a monkey” is totally one of my favorite quotes now!
