Everybody was Kung Fu fighting! HUH!
My little 10 year old is now a fightin' fool!!! She tested this last weekend and got to her camouflage belt in Taekwondo! She didn't actually get her new belt until last night at class.
With this belt, you get to spar! So with sparring, she gets to use Ryan, Maddy and my old sparring gear and some new stuff. Boots & helmet I've got. She needed new mitts and a mouthguard (she wanted an orange one...). She will look dangerous I tell you!
She actually used to play around with Ryan's sparring gear when she was really little. Just looked thru photo albums and picture folders and I don't see the pics of it. shoot. Well, she did...
The instructor has been teaching at this club for the last 18 years! I know this because I was one of the charter students.
In another year, at this rate, she could be a black belt! Then watch out all you bullies on the playground!

That is wonderful! It takes a while. DJ is a blue belt and he still isn't "feeling" it. He does it for exercise and I said that he can quit when he is a black belt. He will be my age.
Tell her that I'm completely impressed with her!
That's great! And just knowing that your child is able to protect herself from strangers is the best part!
That's great!
Watch out is right! Girls need to know how to fight and take care of themselves. She is going to be quite the warrior!
Congrats to Meri! What an accomplishment.
I am pretty impressed with you, as well. I only know a couple of ways to kill a man. LOL!

I love hearing that girls/women are into this. We need to know self defense and have confidence. I think this is great! Kudos to her! (And to you!)
All right! Way to go, Meri! That is an awesome accomplishment. That will teach those bullies.
Whenever I tried to spar in karate, I was always the one to get punched.
That's awesome!!
Woohoooo!!! congrats to your daughter!!!!!!!!

PS, I posted the recipe for the steak salad, if there is another that you are interested in let me know and I'll get it to you. I usually post everything, but there was a whole week of recipes and I didn't have time, let me know if You want one and I'll get it to you.
That is so cool. I wish I knew anything like that, karate or anything! :)
fantastic! She looks so proud :-)
I really enjoyed reading your blog. It's great that your children are learning self-defence, which by the way builds self-confidence. God bless, Lloyd
