Welcome everybody. Thank you for blessing us with your presence this morning. Especially those who braved the weather. I was yesterday in Florida. I went for an event. So, the contrast between the two weathers is quite dramatic. I still have an affinity for New York. I like the change of seasons. I love when it snows. I like to see the world in white. But still, it's cold. As the airlines say, you had many choices where to be this morning. You couldn't have You could have even sat on your couch and listen to the class. So, I appreciate We appreciate everyone who's actually physically here. And of course, we appreciate everybody who's virtually here as well, especially if you're out of town and you couldn't brave the weather this morning. And even if you're in town, we appreciate it. Okay, today's class is dedicated by a very dear friend, Mr. and Mrs. Reb Nachman Goodman, in honor of the engagement of their grandson, Moshe Hammer, to Ahuva Kazernovsky. Mazel tov to the chassan and to the kallah. Mazel tov to the parents of the chassan and kallah, Liora and Yossi Hammer, and Rifka and Shmuel Kazernovsky. And mazel tov, of course, to the Goodman family and to the grandparents. Mazel tov. May it be a binyan adei ad, larichus yomim v'shanim tovim, a marriage and home overflowing with love and joy and serenity and abundant blessings
