...And Sara Laughed

Last night I got an email from my mother that if we had a boy, we would need to have an Orthodox mohel perform the ceremony. And if the bris had to be on Shabbat, he would need to stay at the house.

I told her that there is a Chabad and that I could arrange to have the mohel stay there (again pretty early for this discussion).

I told Adam about the email and his response was - "why should we have a butcher stay here?!?"

I thought it was calling the mohel a butcher, because of what he does.

I then realized he confused the term mohel with schocet (a butcher).

And we got a really great laugh out of it - and it felt good.
