This photo was taken at Chanukah in 1954. Rafael was three years old back then.
I celebrated Shabbat together with my husband and my children. We thought that this was a nice evening.
We also celebrated Chanukah. We lit the candles and gave presents to the children.
It didn’t have anything to do with religion, though; we just thought it was homely.
