Superwife - Camo belt - D

My wife of 8 years and mother of our three kids. She started TKD after the birth of Odie, our third child.

Princess - Camo Belt - D

Our seven-year-old daughter. She was originally supposed to be a spectator to Cowboy, but jumped in and has proven to have an incredible talent for the martial arts.

Cowboy - Camo Belt - D

Our six-year-old son. He is small for his age, so starting him in TKD is what got us into this mess. He is very close to our Chief Instructor, and his spirit is twice as big as he is.

Odie

Our youngest son, born in April of 2006. By the time he is old enough to start, we should all be Black Belts.

Hip

My hip hurts.

I've had a problem with it for a while, but doing a #2 right round kick is getting pretty hard to do. I would stretch it if I knew how, but nothing I do seems to work.

It seems to be ok if I do anything but the right round kick, which is ironic because that used to be my best one.

Princess had her first K4K class yesterday and continues to be awesome at it. She has a full 40 minute BBC class today--I'm curious to see how they teach that part differently to the older kids. She learned the first five moves of Songahm #2 yesterday, which is nice because now she can practice with us.

I feel bad for Cowboy, though--I feel like he's being left behind. The instructors are being careful to keep him included with us as much as they can, which I appreciate. The monkies even behaved last night during our class.

I hear 'ya with the hip. I get that, and then because of making sure that I am doing all those bent knee stances correctly, my bad knees are acting up. Cowboy is only 5-- he'll catch up eventually. There was a time that my son Drew, who just turned 5, was ahead of me, and now I'm WAY ahead of him. Eventually, he'll be kicking my butt. He'll be fine, I'm sure. No sense in rushing things. ;-)
