Tonight, we lit the Hanukkah candles and Arny, getting nervous about having lit candles on the dining room table in the vicinity of our three year old very curious daughter, asked if he should blow them out. I replied "no" as this a major no-no in Hanukkah rules of behavior - they must go out on their own. The following exchange occurred:
mama san: I just realized that every year at this time you read about fires caused by Christmas tree lights, but you never read about fires causes by lit Hanukkah candles.
baba san: Perhaps you are indeed God's chosen people.
