Book meme

Ok, I've never done a meme before but I got tagged for another one and then found this one so thought I would play.

I totally stole this off my mom's blog but I thought it would be fun so:


* Grab the nearest book.
* Open the book to page 56.
* Find the fifth sentence.
* Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.
* Don't dig for your favorite book, the cool book, or the intellectual one: pick the CLOSEST.

So I actually have several sitting on my desk that would easily apply for this but I grabbed the one that was just sitting on top where the boys placed it last night. From "Celebrate! Stories of the Jewish Holidays":

Beyond the Temple gates, they tossed it down.
