Dear Rachel and Motti, Mazel Tov!!! This is such fantastic amazing news! I don't think I could have shrieked any louder when I found out. Rach, you are officially the first of our grade....and you're also the youngest....oy! My mom also wishes you both a huge mazel tov and gives you an Aleph Aleph! Cant wait to give you a hug! I'm so happy! Always, Tamar Toledano

Rachel, Motti, Connie, Michael & the whole Mishpocho! My heart is overflowing with emotion, my eyes streaming with tears of joy and my lips filled with "Shehechiyanu ... Lizman hazeh !!" As all our faces are filled smiles, so too may the Brochos from Above shine down only in a smiling way, ad meah ve'esrim. Can't wait for the Shabbos in Wilmington..when the whole world will be singing the song ... !!!

I am very sorry I couldn't be there with you at this beautiful moment, but I will take comfort in the fact that I have been (and will be) with you on so many others. I have always thought the world of Rachel and if I were to design a perfect match (whose last name wasn't Margules), it would be Motti.

MAZEL TOV! I saw your name Rachel and got so excited. You are officially the first of the Schechter kids... May this be just the begining of many more simchot you two celebrate. May you be zochot to build a bayit neeman b'Yisrael. Mazel Tov
