They're So Lucky

 Sometimes I think about how lucky my kids are. No, not the fact that some of them had 8 great grandparents alive. Not the fact that they live in the same neighborhood as 4 grandparents, an aunt, an almost uncle, and 2 great grandparents. No, not the fact that they get to live in Israel as something for granted. (All of these are amazing but not the point of this post). The fact the since they were born, or at least since the big ones understood what was going on, the Detroit Lions are a good team

Eitan was the night of 2019 Opening Kickoff, Hadar was born the week that Matthew Stafford was traded, and Meital was born right before the season the Lions had their first 2 playoff wins of my life (2nd and 3rd of my dads). Yes, the Lions have as many playoff wins in Meital's life as mine. 

Anyway, they love singing Forward down the field, cheering Ja-Red Goff, and watching highlights. A couple times they woke up at the end of a night game and they enjoyed watching with me. Sunday mornings at breakfast we have a dance party where we play NFL on Fox, CBS, Forward Down the Field. And they expect to win, because every Monday they ask me if the Lions won, and every week basically I say yes (they are 10-1). Its come to a point that they even expect to win on days that they don't play - Eitan came into my room at 6 am on Sunday Morning to ask me if the Lions won the night before (they didn't play).
