We are so proud of him. He has been working really, really hard preparing for this! He did so awesome at the black belt test. (Which included 100 push-ups and breaking stacks of boards.) It's a big deal! They have to know so much! Master Park will say something like "Blue Stripe Form" and David whips out all these fancy moves. I don't know how he does it. Greg and I were so impressed. He worked hard, and he was really well-prepared. He made it look easy-peasy.
Now that he has the stress of the test behind him, he's enjoying TKD even more. He especially likes mentoring the younger students and helping out the instructors.
You can see highlights of his belt test HERE. (David isn't a huge fan of this video--he thinks the music is "too dramatic." And Greg and I are like um sorry dude but this is the only song that could possibly be the soundtrack so get used to it.) Also, if you don't want to sit through the whole thing and you just want to see David flying through the air crouching tiger style, watch THE END.

Congratulations, David, you're the best!
P.S. Have to include a cute Sara story. David's black belt has been a big deal. And quite a bit of time has been spent at the studio. Last week when Sara saw a South Korean flag in a totally different context, she pointed to it and said, "David's black belt!"
