22 Tishrei Despite Rivkah's rash it has been a restful Feast day. Shmuli and Yoshi asked if they could avoid the "pong" of Devorah's lotion at home and spend the day with the rabbi and Eli. Later I discovered they ended up sitting with Old Silas as he has taken a turn for the worse. At least, Shmuli told me, the herbs at that house smell better than ours. Rabbi Moshe explained to the boys that we should care for the sick even in feast days and Shabbats. Sitting with a sick man its good for both his soul and yours. All four of them went to the mikvah on the way home. Shmuli commented that HaShem was like a mum wanting boys to wash all the time. I took that as a compliment.
