As the midrash goes, Mount Sinai was a rocky, desert mountain. Moses had been on top of Mount Sinai for forty days, and the day he received the Ten Commandments and the Torah from God, Mount Sinai bloomed with flowers. And this is why we celebrate Shavuot.
That is exactly what happened to our own Mount Sinai. We have spent a long time making our Mount Sinai from a bowl, packing peanuts, glue, and paint. Today, we helped our mountain bloom with beautiful colors just as it did in the midrash. We added Moses to the top of our mountain to get the full effect! We carefully found places for all of our real flowers to go to make our mountain as beautiful as can be. Stop by our room today or tomorrow before the flowers die!
