Logan Morof of Beverly Hills is a
fifth-grader at Hillel. In addition
to his mom's awesome
spaghetti, Logan loves that his
mom, Nicole Morof, is best at
being a friend.

"When I think of mom, enjoy-
ment comes to my mind. My mom
always says that it's the little things
in life that count and that's really
the truth. It's the things like play-
ing tennis or watching movies that
make the best memories. That's
where moms come in.
"Your mom can be the best cook
or the best at her job, but mine
is the best at being a friend. She
is my tennis buddy, my movie
go-to gal and, of course, my loving
mom.
"She makes dinner a delight,
and the best food she makes is
spaghetti. The greatest spaghetti
is always my mom's; it's a treat to
have!
"When she drives me around in
the car, we have the best, most fun
chats about what's going on in our

Nicole, puppy Kobie and
Logan Morof

lives. We talk about friends; we
talk about scary events, fun ones,
too, and we talk about everything
under the sun.
"My mom always sets high
standards for me and for her. We
always achieve our goals or try our
hardest to get to them. We always
have a good time, and that's why I
love my mom."

Eitan Shere of West Bloomfield is fifth-grader at Hillel. He wrote
with humor about the virtues of his well-known mom, Rabbi Rachel
Shere of Adat Shalom Synagogue in Farmington Hills.

Our supportive community
of listeners makes WDET's
community impact possible.

"My mother is really a great woman. Now, I know, you've probably heard of
the famous Rabbi Rachel Shere. That's great and all, but I love her for a mother,
not a rabbi.
"She takes good care of me and my two brothers and my dog, Simcha.
Whether it's baking, storytelling, playing or helping with homework, my mom
is ALWAYS on the job. I don't care if she grows old and is in a nursing home
and I'm a famous gazillionaire, I will still go to help her out every day of every
week of every month.
"She takes us on amazing trips, like to New York, California and Israel. Her
heart is big, her kindness is unlimited and, overall, she is a great rabbi. Now, I
know that I said I love her for a mother, not a rabbi, but learning the insights
of the Torah with her is the most fun thing!
"But here's a shout out to all you mothers out there, who worked hard to
raise your kids to be the wonderful people they are, and I want to end this pas-
sage with one word: Thanks:'
