CANDLE LIGHTING SAMPLES

I call my Grandma “MeeMaw” - cause when I was very small...
I knew I really loved her - but I couldn’t say “Grandma” at all!
Mom and I lived with her - till I was the age of nine...
And as long as she has her pocketbook & keys - MeeMaw’s doing fine!
She loves “Unsolved Mysteries” and the “Home Shopping Show”
Where she puts all that “junk”...I will never, ever know!
What I do know is that she -- means a lot to me...
MeeMaw, I know you’re gonna cry...but please light Candle 3

Aunt Stacey, you are special, and you mean so much to me
You give me lots of time, and you’re loving as can be!
You always take me shopping, and you buy me lots of clothes
You helped with my Bat Mitzvah speech; my admiration grows!
I used to love to stay - at your apartment in the city
And you wallpapered my first bedroom - and made it nice and pretty!
You taught me how to chew gum! Thanks a lot for that!
And I also want to thank you for those times you babysat!
On every single holiday - there’s always a gift with my name...
Now Candle 7’s waiting...come on and light the flame


Uncle Brad, Aunt Marianne, Emily, and Ben...
Though you’re all great relatives...each one’s a terrific friend!
Uncle Brad takes me to his softball games, and he took us to a Broadway Show
He buys us candy all the time...but it's really for HIM...you know!
Aunt Marianne is a teacher - and she helps us with school stuff...
And she makes the best grilled cheese! I can never get enough!
I love my sleepovers with Emily and Ben; those memories I’ll keep
We love playing with Nana’s exercise gadgets; we never go to sleep!
Now I ask this special family - come help me celebrate
It’s time to light your Candle - and it’s Candle #8!



Hollywood Theme:


Grandma Phissy and Grandpa Ronnie – the Oscar goes to you…
For being so terrific…at everything you do!
Grandma’s matzo ball soup – is the best in the world…I bet…
And I love hearing Grandpa’s jokes – though sometimes they’re hard to get!
He keeps me well-supplied – with all those Pilot pens…
And so now…Grandma and Grandpa…let me say again…
Thanks for your production – of my Mom; it’s clear to me…
That you are very special; now please light candle #3!
