Addy and Carter's First Taekwon-Do Meet

On Saturday March 12, 2011 Addy and Carter had their first Taekwon-Do meet. It was in Milton which is about a half hour away from where we live. The kids were a little excited and a little scared. When we got there I realized that I forgot both of their yellow belts. When I told them this they didn't want to go out they wanted to go home. Will being the wonderful father went all the way back home and got the belts. You have to understand that will had just gotten back from working ALL night long and then came with us to watch the kids. Will got back with the belts just in time for Carter to go out and do his thing. Carter was pretty scared going into the gym and seeing all the people that were there, but with a little help from mom and his teachers, he was brave enough to go out and do his two events. It was Carter and another little boy in his age group and in his two events he got two gold medals. Carter did an amazing job.
Addy was also pretty nervous going into the gym. There was three of them in Addy's group, and in Addy's two events she got a silver and a bronze. She did so good. It was so much fun to be there and watch all their hard work that they have done, and to watch their confidence grown when they got those medals. They didn't want to take them off. I am so glad that Will was able to be there for the kids, what an amazing husband and father.

That's great that they got to compete and win some prizes! What sporty kids you have!

BTW, is Addy's competition wearing a pillow in her uniform?
