As of yesterday, we have a Supreme Pontiff- Pope Francis! Our first pope from Argentina. I loved watching the people who waited patiently in St. Peter's Square for hours until the white smoke showed - talk about dedication! It was kind of crazy - the smoke started out black (the crowd groans), gets a little lighter (the crowd gasps), and finally goes white (the Catholic world goes nuts and I get to do my "Habemus Papam" dance:P ). And the moment when Pope Francis asked the people to bless him before he blessed them was just amazing.
Such a wonderful act of humility what he did. This is sooo exciting! I better do the Habemus Papam dance with you! :D
