Ilanoters write their own prayers!

This morning, as part of t'filah, our chanichim in Ilanot wrote their own prayers. They joined together by tzrif to think about what they are thankful for, what makes them happy, and anything else they want to communicate with G-d. Below are the prayers written by each tzrif!
