I would think a description about your religious practices would be sufficient. Could this not be added to your already existing book? The request of a picture of you standing in front of a menorah seemed an odd request in an off-putting way (something about it feels like the SW was stereotyping you, but maybe that's not the right word. I can't exactly put my finger on it). I would feel just as put off if I were a potential adoptive parent and the SW told me to include a pic of me and my hubby in front of a christmas tree or a creche. Although we are Catholic, we don't always get a tree and really don't make that much of a "hoop-de-do" over Christmas, either from a religious standpoint, or in terms of decorating the house and doing the whole present thing. If an emom was looking for the whole blow out Christmas experience for her child, and/or a strong religious emphasis, she wouldn't pick us, either!
