For recitation on erev Chodesh Sivan, this Thursday, May 29th.
The Shelah HaKadosh, composed a prayer that parents should recite for their children at any time of the year — but especially before Rosh Chodesh Sivan, for that is the month when G-d gave us the Torah, and when the Jewish people began to be called His Children.
Artscroll offers the following link of the complete prayer in Hebrew and English. Or here from tefillos.com.
The Mishna Berurah brings down that each day a parent should daven for not only himself, but that his children should have a portion in Torah. One should have this in mind in both bircas haTorah and U Va L’Tzion (l’mayan no liga larik).

What do you mean by “dropping”a mitzvah? Drop it from what?
To understand the question properly, we need to study some background material. The Gemara (Makkos 23b) teaches that Hashem commanded 613 mitzvos, 365 negative mitzvos (lo saaseh) and 248 positive ones (mitzvos aseh), although it does not list them. Yet we know that the Torah commands us what to do thousands of times. Obviously, most of these commands are not counted, but which ones? Furthermore, by mentioning that there are 613 specific mitzvos, the Gemara implies the importance of identifying them. This last factor led many early authorities to pinpoint the exact identity of these 613 mitzvos. In fact, the Geonim and Rishonim authored a vast literature debating and categorizing what exactly comprises these 613 mitzvos.

City officials continue to crunch numbers on a relatively small bond issue proposal that could appear before voters in November to fund their new park.
University Heights Mayor Susan Infeld is putting together a detailed plan for City Council to initially consider, possibly at its June 2 meeting.
