Barmitzvah

Dear Readers,

I am so excited for October 9, 2010. Not because it is my dad's birthday, not because it is close to halloween, but because it is my older brother's barmitzvah! Thirteen year old boys in the Jewish religon become a barmitzvah. Thirteen year old girls become a batmitzvah. What that means is that person will become an adult, which means, they can drink wine, im not saying they want to! They can also become a mentor in Hebrew School. Bar and Bat Mitzvahs are one of the most inportant days of our (jewish people) life. We have to study for many years and, then at our Bar or Bat Mitzvahs, we say what we have practiced in front of many people.

Thank you for taking your time for reading this!

Everything is so different now that summer is almost over! For example, I came in to the summer, only doing balkwalkovers, and came out of summer doing backhandsprings. My older brother came into the summer on level seven in gymnastics, and now he is level nine. See what I mean? Comment and tell me what happend to you over the summer!
