Mid Week Update

Charlie and I are enjoying our time off alone together courtesy of February vacation. Yesterday we had a lunch date at IHOP per Charlie's request, and it was nice to go to Charlie's Taekwon do lesson yesterday without having to chase Amelia around the entire time (she is in daycare as per usual because, well, we have to pay for it regardless and it offers a nice chance for Charlie to get some one on one time.)

Charlie is continuing enthusiastically with Taekwon do; he had his first sparring class on Tuesday and loved it. One of the teachers came up to me afterwards and told me he was doing "real good - I mean real good" and the manager told us yesterday that he will be ready to test for his next belt - white with a yellow stripe - next month sometime and that if we committed to bringing him at least twice a week that he expected that he would be a black belt in three years. Since the school is teeming with little black belts, I don't find this hard to believe at all.

Tomorrow Mike is home with Charlie and they have plans to see Journey 2 which I have yet to see a preview of but which Charlie is excitedly talking about.

A good week so far!
