Stretching
Following the leader and practicing self-control
Caden and Mr. Ben
(Incidentally, Mr. Ben has LOTS of really "cool" tattoos and the boys have been asking for their Halloween tattoos to be applied over the last couple of days. When we talked about tattoos, the boys thought the ones on Mr. Ben's fingers were especially cool. I asked if they realized that his tattoos don't wash off and Luke thought that was awesome too. He promptly asked for "some like that." I told him he had to wait til he was old enough to choose something he wouldn't mind keeping forever. I'm hoping his tastes change if he decides to get one - right now he likes Superman, spiders, bats... )
Luke and Mr. Ben
Notice the black stripe on their belts? They earn those by being respectful during class, "working hard", and by learning parts of their 11 moves associated with the white belt. They have been earning lots of stripes! Caden has 4, Luke has 3, and they will be doing their belt test on February 7th! They have both worked so hard to learn all their moves, and we think they'll be plenty ready by then! If I can figure out how to post a video, I'll show your their progress! We're so glad they're both enjoying it so much, and so thankful they have this opportunity! Thanks grandparents!!!
Side note - As Luke and I walked into the grocery store the other night after practice, a couple of kids noticed Luke's uniform and yelled, "Look!! He's a WHITE BELT!!!" Luke walked tall and proud :)
