Quoting Joie

Add to the list of things you never thought you'd hear out of your kids...

From Friday afternoon in the van driving home:

Jo: Scooz me.
Liv: Did you toot?
Jo: No, my mowf toot.

Surprise Promotion

In addition to sparring camp this week, Livvi had her first KKZ class tonight. She expected to move from her "black" belt she earned in her 6-7 year old class to the white belt with a double-gold stripe as her first belt in KKZ. However, we were surprised she and a fellow classmate who moved up with her were promoted past that belt right to the gold belt! Her instructor said it was because they earned it by already learning the Chon-Ji pattern and other techniques before moving up. Awesome job, Livvi!

Lil' Dragon No More

Livvi is no longer in the Lil' Dragons Tae Kwon Do class. Her last day was this past Wednesday. At the age of eight, she is supposed to move up to the Karate Kidz Zone, however her instructor said she can go ahead and move up now, if she wants. So, she's moving up. Since she has her "black belt" there isn't anything to stay in the Lil' dragons class for. Her first class is Tuesday, July 14. We are all excited for her! Also, that same week (July 13-17) she will have her sparring camp!
