Another belt test
Last night David tested for his orange belt in Taekwondo.
Mary has ballet on Friday nights, and I realized I couldn't take Sara to the belt test. So it was a group effort of family, friends, and neighbors yesterday evening. Thank you, all. It was such a treat to sit all by myself and watch David.
Because of the weather, David's classes have been cancelled a fair amount. So he wasn't as prepared as he would have liked to have been. He was nervous. But he tried his best. I assured him that Master Park appreciated his efforts. David sets such a good example of hard work and serious effort.
And he broke another board! This one was thicker than the last one.
David has been such a hard worker in all aspects of his life lately. He attends tae kwon do two or three times a week, he diligently studies his spelling words, he watches Sara for me, he helps clean up, he is keeping his room organized, he's quick to practice the piano every day. I am very grateful for him and his hard work.
I may or may not get around to posting the video. But you can see a couple of minutes of class and a side jump kick.
