4 Adar 5772
2. Berakhot: Three blessings are recited on the megilla prior to the evening reading:
a) `Al Mikra Megilla (for the reading itself)
b) She`asah Nissim La'abotenu (mentioning the miracles Hashem performed for our fathers)
c) Shehehiyanu (expressing gratitude that Hashem has kept us alive to participate in this occasion). One blessing is recited at the conclusion of the reading, Harav et Rivenu (acknowledging that it was Hashem who fought our battles).
The same blessings are recited for the daytime reading except for Shehehiyanu. If one omitted Shehehiyanu in the evening it should be recited in the day.
