Just cool!
So my bro Joe is staying over here with my two nephews Sam and Truman while Becca is in Maryland doing something like getting more of their stuff they left when they moved (I think..) And on Monday we were having dinner, and I noticed Sam eating with his left hand. And just because I think its cool when people are left handed, I asked if he was left handed. He was a little confused (He's 6). Joe asked which hand does he use to write. Sam said he used each hand sometimes. We asked which hand was easier to use. He said both. And showed us. So mom said he was ambidextrous! Which I just thought was cool!!:)

BALLET!
So.. A studio saw some videos of me dancing and decided to give me a Ballet Scholarship. So on Saturdays I am going to Ballet. I have a couple of friends that are going already. But they are in a higher level, so I am not in the same class, but it's nice to see them after class. I started my first class last Saturday, learned some really cool stretches!!!! Know some new French words, but don't the moves to some of them. Or i know the move but not the name. Really confusing! Still wanting to be a gymnast, but I'll take Ballet too!:) I thank God for this!!:)

The Reformation!
Tonight we are going to a friends house with a bunch of other people to celebrate The Reformation. So I would like to give you a little history about what the Reformation is about..
he Protestant Reformation was the schism within Western Christianity initiated by John Wycliffe, Jan Hus, Martin Luther, John Calvin, and other early Protestants. It was sparked by the 1517 posting of Luther's Ninety-Five Theses. The efforts of the self-described "reformers", who objected to ("protested") the doctrines, rituals, leadership, and ecclesiastical structure of the Roman Catholic Church, led to the creation of new national Protestant churches. The Reformation was precipitated by earlier events within Europe, such as the Black Death and the Western Schism, which eroded people's faith in the Catholic Church and the Papacy that governed it. This, as well as many other factors, such as the spread of Renaissance ideas, the spread of the printing press, and the fall of the Eastern Roman Empire, contributed to the creation of Protestantism.
The Roman Catholic Church responded with a Counter-Reformation initiated by the Council of Trent and spearheaded by the new order of the Society of Jesus (Jesuits) specifically organised to counter the Protestant movement. In general, Northern Europe, with the exception of most of Ireland, turned Protestant. Southern Europe remained Roman Catholic, while fierce battles which turned into warfare took place in central Europe.[1]
The first of the new churches was the Unitas Fratrum (Unity of the Brethren) dating their origins to Jan Hus in the early 15th century. The largest of the new churches were the Lutherans (mostly in Germany, the Baltics and Scandinavia) and the Reformed churches (mostly in Germany, France, Switzerland, the Netherlands and Scotland). There were many smaller bodies such as the Free Christians, as well.
Although there had been a reformation movement significantly predating Luther, the most common dating of the Protestant Reformation begins in 1517, when Luther published The Ninety-Five Theses, and concludes in 1648 with the Peace of Westphalia that ended years of European religious wars.[1]
