Excuse me for interrupting....but......

[bubba's mom]

I HAVE GOT to brag about my son. He is 7.5 yrs (will be 8 in Jan.) and received his blackbelt in TKD this evening!! 3.5 years of hard work has finally paid off for him ..... we are all so proud tonight....and I can't stop crying....(a "mom" thing ya know!)
Anyhows, introducing my son, Ryan....our family's 1st blackbelt! (pictured here with his instructor)....

Sorry for the interruption, carry on............

 

[ChrisFL]

cool ...he could probably kick the crap outta me

 

[nerdboyrockstar]

Wow! Congrats!!

I didn't get mine until I was 10!

 

[Shagley]

WOW - that is quite an accomplishment for anyone, yet alone someone so young. You have a right to be proud. How exciting!!

 

[Fan2CSkr]

Thats awesome! From the size of his smile he thinks so too. You must be so proud.

7 1/2... I can still take him on. good for you, he's involved with an activity he likes and not sitting with his face in a playstation and a cookie jar.

and he'll come in handy when you need lumber split and cinder blocks crushed.

 

[bubba's mom]

Thanks guys.....I AM proud.......and I am also the mom of a second-grader with a blackbelt


(should i be scared?!?)

You may want to rethink those lessons, before he becomes a teenager. A hormonal, teenage boy with the power to kick you through the wall & break blocks with his hand & head may not be such a good thing. Oh, no problem! You'll just make a trip to Margaritaville for a fruity drink or 10 & forget all about the fact that your 13 yr. old can beat you up.

Congrats to Ryan! That's an impressive accomplishment.

 

[Off2DisIGo]

Awesome......

 

[momrek06]

AWESOME

 

[Operamom]

That's great! That shows great discipline! Good job mom and son!

 

[Cinderella822]

Great news! That's quite an accomplishment. I know how proud you must be.

not worried....they teach discipline and respect...more "mental life lessons" going on there...so, I actually feel better with the knowledge he has learned!

I hope you are NOT thinking I am going to wait THAT LONG to go have a drink (eh, or 10) at Margaritaville.....

Bubba's mom, that is wonderful news. He must be an incredible young man. I love the pic. He looks so happy. You must be thrilled.

 

[damo]

Yay Ryan! That's a great accomplishment for such a young man! His determination will take him far, I'm sure.

 

[lindalinda]

congrats! What did you decide to do for a celebration?

Of course, not!!! It just sounded like a good excuse to go to Universal to me. Maybe, I'm the only one who sits around thinking up reasons why we must go on vacation.

My little man takes a different form of martial arts. He's 9 and has been taking for three years this month. He's a 2nd degree green belt. He probably has another 1 1/2 or 2 to go before he reaches blackbelt degree. Congratulations to you both. That is quite an accomplishment, I'm sure I'll be bawling too!

 

[PlutoLuvr]

Whoo-hoo!!! Many, many congratulations

Way to go Ryan, congratulations, and keep up the training .
