Meshi and Ro'i Shaffer

Those are my darlings.

My daughter on the right is nearly two and a half. Her name is : Oriyah Meshi Tzvia (Trying saying that fast). No-one knows where she gets her curly hair from as mine was always dead straight as is evidenced from photos of younger days. Her hobbies are waking up at night and giving a running commentary of her life (Meshi sits on the chair. Meshi eats chicken etc.)

My Son on the left is Ro’i Moshe Elchanan (blame my wife. I didn’t pick the names). He is about 4 months old in that photo. He is the first Shaffer in 7 generations to have blue eyes. He enjoys cooing like a bird and generally looking surprised.

They totally worship each other which is really cute

Ben and ro'i

This is me with my son. I actually had wanted a daughter as Meshi is so great, but now I have a son I have to tell you that there is just no feeling in the world like having one. There is a massive bond between us even at this age and he makes me happy just by him cooing at me. In this photo he is pretending to help me with my work.

The whole family

That’s my kids as well as my wife Gina. With every passing day, our life together gets greater. I just hope it’s the same for her Great story how we met involving a taxi-cab and a mighty hangover, but we’ll save that for another day.
