best friends

recently, well just yesterday actually, i visited my best friend nikta. i went to her house and we had lot's of fun. my sister has a fair share of best friends too. as well as my brother. i thought back to the time when we had a little fight about something silly, that i laugh at now. then i realized how friends are such an important thing in life. i thought of it this way, if they weren't there; who would you laugh with at school? if they weren't there;who would talk to you, or help you with work at school? see if you didn't have friends, your life would be pretty bad. think of that when you go to school and be thankful you have a best friend, and how lucky you are that you have a friend who is always there for you.
all for now

Eoin, the tumbler

Eoin is my youngest brother, but probably the most fearless of the us kids at the age of 2. he doesn't mind getting his hands dirty while playing in our sandbox with Adam, or jumping in puddles with sneakers on. he is pretty much just like Adam, but adam does have a small fear of being alone, in the dark, at night, with out mom. Eoin falls almost 2 times a day, but it doesn't affect his fondness of running,jumping,somersaulting, or trying to flip, like his second eldest sister Emily. he often tries to try new tricks like rolling of the end of a bed, falling down the side of a couch, sitting on an arm from our couch then flipping over it,new gymnastic moves emily shows us, or just trying out new difficult hip-hop moves adam learns. even though he has many a injuries per day, he doesn't let the pain stop him from having fun, and being plain out wild. people say his almost daily injuries are just part of being the age of 2 ( terrible two's) but i personally believe in terrible two's.  the kids are probably being crazy, mean or rude because they want something, or need something. his personality is, well; he is 2 so he is still developing a personality so i will do my best to write what he is right now. he is energetic, speedy,sneaky, and lively. ( my oma [ that is grandma in German] and opa [ that is grandpa in German] helped with these adjectives too.) he is so sneaky. once we were in a hotel in Yorkton. about ten minutes after we got there i realized Eoin had tossed my sandal in the toilet. i was so grossed out at the time i screamed for mom. after though we laughed a lot at it. i begged mom to wash it, or i would never wear that sandal again. i don't feel so grossed out at it though anymore, now i just laugh at it.
that's all for now!

adam, hip-hop specialist

 i started dancing first, but this year my little 5 year old brother adam wanted to join in the fun too. i have been dancing for three years, but this was adams first year. he has always been doing little moves, he calls them break dancing.this year he entered hip-hop at the same studio i do jazz, ballet, and open at. brenda's school of baton and dance.( BSOBAD) at first it sort of angered me, after all i did start dancing first. but now i am OK with it. i am just happy that were both happy doing dance. i hope he decides to do dance again next year, because his hip-hop group is so cute! there are four boys, and three girls in his little kid hip-hop class.he is in french kindergarten. he is a little afraid of kindergarten and is a mommy's boy. his personality is a little shy when he meets new people but gradually get's better( though with me is never nervous to call me a toilet in french!) , hilarious, enthusiastic, and is a strong boy.
that's all for know!

emily, the elastic band

while i think that gymnastics is a very good sport for my sister, i am always worried she will injure her self. falling of the 3 foot beam while doing back walk-over's or slipping off the high bars, while doing a kip ( according to her, a kip is where you stand on a box, then jump to the bar, touch your toes to the bar, then push your self up on the bar). the name emily, the elastic band came from a few weeks ago when we made a circus together. she was the amazing acrobat: the elastic band. it sort of just fit her. so now i call her elastic emily. she likes it a lot. she is always wanting to show her new gymnastic skills to everyone she meets, her personality is bright,bouncy, and bubbly! don't forget very stretchy! she  goes to gymnastics three times a week, for three hours. i am surprised she is not tired! she always has time to make awesome dances with me, when she has the time. including a zombie one where she was pretending to have a boyfriend who's a zombie. i was a regular zombie girl convincing her he would eat her up. fun times!  she dabbles in singing, and writing in french. she is in grade two french immersion. 
that's all for now
