Makeshift Erev Pesach Siyum

Title
Makeshift Erev Pesach Siyum
Description
A photograph of my 2-month old son on my lap during a virtual Siyum on erev Pesach
Every year, I participate in a Siyum/celebration on the morning before Passover begins to absolve myself of needing to fast, being a firstborn. When my firstborn son, then 2 months old, and I were shut-in for quarantine, our synagogue's siyum went virtual. While I fully expected to share this tradition with my son as I had with my father, I hardly expected to be doing it on Zoom for his first siyum. A perfect snapshot of how we clung to practice as we could during the pandemic.
