Yesterday we went to the Église Madeline for about an hour celebrating 200 years of English worship in Paris. The music was AMAZING! The type of stuff you need bold, italic and caps lock to explain! They used a type of bell instrument that used a rubber thing to hit the inside, so that you could control it more. We even got to see people from our own church in Paris come up and speak a few times! AMAZING!

Français: Sur Vendridi nous avons sport. Sur la première semaine j’était sort la stade pour allez à le bus quell allez à ma école. Mais j’ai trompé! Je m’étais rendu compte que je était allé avec une autre école!!! J’ai couru à ma ecole et heureusement ils ont dix encore minutes pour resté. J’ai beaucoup de adrénaline unnecessaire mais ca assurée moi je vais jamais faire ca encore.

English: On Friday we have sport. The first week I was going out the stadium to go to the bus which was going to my school. But I made a mistake! I realized that I had gone with another school !!! I ran to my school and thankfully they were still waiting for ten more minutes. I had a lot of unnecessary adrenaline but it assured me I will never do that again.

EDIT APRIL 5 AFTER SEEING MY TERRIBLE FRENCH:

Sur Vendridi nous avons sport, et on le fait à la stade. C’etait la premiere semaine, et à la fin, je suis sorti de la stade pour aller à le bus qui aura retourner à mon école. Mais je me suis trompé! Je me suis rendue compte que je suis allé avec une autre école!!! J’ai couru dar-dar à la stade et heureusement il y avait encore dix minutes avant qu’on partira. J’avais beaucoup de adrénaline unnecessaire mais ca m’a assuré je le vais jamais faire encore.

Today we made a chart of we were “reconnaissant” about, and it turned out like this:

We have suffered a bit, but we have gained a lot out of going to Paris, not just bragging rights. That is why we sat around the kitchen table and we got to work being appreciative. It really pays off, letting us look back at so many good things and help us feel better here. In fact, I would recommend something. grab out your markers, colored pencils, and an eraser. Then place a piece of paper on the table and just draw out your gratefulness. Let it flow onto the page. spread it until the whole paper is covered, then read what you have done, and take it in. I really helped us, so just try it sometimes. Be grateful. 😀

The thing I always missed about the united states were my friends. Well last weekend, my mom got me a playdate. And now I am definitely more comfortable with france. So I think I know how to live here now. :D. And thanks to mom for arranging the playdate.

La semaine dernière a été la première semaine de mon école française. J’ai réussi à comprendre à certains moments et être perplexe à d’autres moments. Et je suis surpris que j’ai réussi. Et une autre semaine est juste deux jours après aujourd’hui.

A video that a friend sent us.

              We couldn’t get any of my school books until Friday, which was orientation. We asked the principal in the morning and he told us to come back after orientation and pick them up. After orientation, we went to the schools supply shop and we got in line. It was about half an hour before anyone told us that the line was closed, and to come back at 1:30. So we returned later and got in line. Me and my mom waited no less then an hour until we got to the front of the line. And then the principal showed up and started talking to us. While that was happening,  another family came by and took our place. Once they were out of the way, we asked for the supplies we needed for 6éme. She said that they only had one fourth of the supplies needed for our class, and told us that we were going to have to pick the rest up later. We thought that was fine, until we counted how many bags she was using. Three. And they were quite full. I mean, This is just the books.
