Layne tested for his orange belt on Friday. He did so well! Master Ben commented several times on how well he was doing. I sure was a proud mama! He had a little bit of trouble breaking the board, he had to do a running jump side kick. One of the other instructors drew a ladybug on the board on told him to smooch it, and then he was able to break it. Now that he is an orange belt he has to have a mouth guard and groin protection. So today after school we went to Scheels to get a mouth guard and groin protection so he would be already for class tomorrow.

We are all adjusting to our new schedules pretty well. The boys have trouble getting up some mornings and are always sad to see Layne go to school, but it sure is quite during the day!
