Special shout out to our sister, Rivke, without a doubt a high energy sister and a team player. We can honestly, can say, that without your help, the High Energy Bat Mitzvah, would not have been such a success. You are an amazing teacher, speechwriter, video editor, organizer, therapist, and the best sister!

SUPER!

Why do you need a party planner?

We have to admit, We did ask ourselves that question, before we started working with Gilda, and coordinating the high energy bat mitzvah.

Now, we completely understand the benefits of working with a talented party planner.

It was such an outstanding pleasure working with Gilda. Armed 24/7 with a winning smile, Gilda, understood our vision for the event, and our budget. Kol Hakavod – you, produced an EPIC high energy bat mitzvah.

WOW!

Working together with Aderet, (and us) you designed an awesome logo and graphics for our invitation, “Sign In Board”, backpacks and birkon.

Thanks for helping us avoid the hassle, by uploading our invitation to Paperless Post and printing off copies, that Aderet distributed to her friends.

Our guests enjoyed writing messages to Aderet on the adorable stickers that you prepared for her on the bright and fun “Sign In Board”.

We hope to continue using our new Aderet birkonim every Shabbat.

Aderet – You Are A Wonder Woman!

November 22, 2018 by Yocheved Feinerman 1 Comment

Speech and Montage from the High Energy Bat Mitzvah Celebration of a Wonder Woman, our daughter, Aderet Feinerman – Thursday, November 22, 2018.

Art Magnet

Aderet, the theme we chose for your Bat Mitzvah is Superheroes.

When people hear the word Superhero, they might think of the Marvel comic series, and its cast of many characters.

But, when we think of Superheroes, we think of a person whose actions and achievements exceed the ordinary.

KRifkind Photography

Many people have asked us, why did we name you Aderet?

We named you Aderet Chaya, because it means strength of life.

Made with love by High Energy Mom

The Cloak

Sefer Melachim Alef, Perek Yud- Tet, chronicles a pivotal moment in our history. Following Hashem’s instructions, the Navi Eliyahu transmits the mantle of leadership, to Elisha, his successor, the next Navi of the Jewish people.

Eliyahu gives Elisha his “Adarto” his mantle, his cloak.

The Adarto, represents the physical manifestation of the transfer of leadership. The actual “Adereto– Cloak”  was significant. Eliyahu Hanavi physically removed his cloak. The cloak, that he wore, while leading the Jewish nation.

He now gives it to Elisha, and says, “It’s yours- I trust you- a nation is counting on you- to be their leader. To represent them in the world. To do good and do right.”

Your Namesake

Aderet, Daddy and I stand here, on the occasion of your Bat Mitzvah, and in a way, we are recreating your namesake.

We have given you life. We arrived in Israel with faith, hope and conviction, that this was where we wanted you to grow up. We have carefully chosen Torah paths to educate you.

Now, you are twelve, a Bat Mitzvah, and while there is certainly much more raising of you to do, we pray that these past twelve years be a springboard, into the next chapter of your life.

KRifkind Photography

Menschlicht Superhero

We hope that you will live your life as a “Menshchlicht Superhero.”

A woman who is strong in her convictions and beliefs, but at the same time, good, kind and giving.

Be someone’s Superhero, who shows up in life’s complicated moments, and walks alongside them.

It’s easy to show up for someone when there is a party to go to, but the true test of a person, is if they are there for another in a quiet moment of need.

Continue the Legacy

Continue the legacy of the Matriarchs and the Patriarchs of our family.

With all those that have come before us, we bless you.

 יְשִׂמֵךְ אֱלֹהִים כְּשָׂרָה רִבְקָה רָחֵל וְלֵאָה

Aderet, we hand you the Adarto, given to us by the many who came before you.

 יְבָרֵךְ אֲדֹנָי וִישַׁמְּרֵך

Aderet, Hashem has given you a mission, wear your Superhero cape wisely, wear it proudly, and wear it always.

יָאֵר אֲדֹנָי פָּנָיו אֵלָיִךְ וִיחֻנַיִךְ

So, that Am Yisrael knows that you, Aderet Chaya, are the Wonder Woman for the job.

יִשָּׂא אֲדֹנָי פָּנָיו אֵלָיִךְ וַיָּשֶׂם לָךְ שָׁלוֹם
