Canadian Bar Mitzvah

For children growing up in a snowy climate, the coming-of-age moment where you're finally invited by your dad to join the group of strangers currently struggling to push a car in neutral out of the roadside snowdrift it's gotten itself stuck into.

Every time I go by the blind curve in the park I had my Canadian Bar Mitzvah at, I smile a little.
