Lift Miriam’s Cup and say: We are reminded with this cup of Moses and his two mothers.  Yocheved was his birth mother and Bithia was his adoptive mother, daughter of the pharaoh.  Moses sister, Miriam, understood that sometimes it takes two mothers to create and rear a child and that neither Yochved or Bithia could do it on her own; each needed the other.
