My name is Ethan Matthew Hill.  I’m the son of Richard and Caren Hill. I have two lovely sisters.  For your information, no they did not pay me to say that.  First there is Bayleigh who is two years older than me.  Then comes me and then there is Delanie who is three years younger than me. I am also blessed to have 5 amazing grandparents: Jack and Marjorie Levins, and the late Marlene Levins and Eleanor and the late Benjamin Hill.  I also have a very big extended family who I love very much, but going into detail on every member would take way too long. I also have four dogs and I would like to emphasize the fact that they are adorable.

Back to the topic of myself, and I so enjoy talking about myself…not! My favorite thing about being Jewish is meeting new people on Jewish holidays, events, and services.  Speaking of services, I had to prepare a lot for my Bar Mitzvah, and through that I have learned that I am a very hard worker.  I finished every possible prayer/song for my Bar Mitzvah with five weeks to spare.

I also had to complete a mitzvah project. My mitzvah project was to help elders, along with the help of my friend Ben Blau, with their electronics because I really enjoy electronics. However, I learned that I also enjoy meeting new people and learning about their past. The only issue with this mitzvah project was that it took an hour to get there, which means you can bet my mom and I had some great conversations…because every teenage boy loves talking in great lengths to his parents.

If you would like to congratulate me in becoming a bar mitzvah, please direct your notes of mazel tov to: mktingdr@aol.com or levins92071@gmail.com
