Karate Lessons...........

Jack and Eve have been taking tae kwan do and eskrima (Filipino style) for the past 4 months and they Love it! Jack especially loves it and all day long runs around the house doing kicks and forms. He uses his little siblings as pretend sparring partners and, needless to say, they love to try their own moves on big brother. Recently though, Jack broke his arm..............doing the thing he loves the most, Sparring in class with a partner trying out kicks and punches that only advanced students do. While attempting an exchange front snap kick his beginner partner reacted and grabbed Jack's leg and Jack lost his balance falling off the mat onto the tile floor. He landed with his left arm twisted behind his back. Diagnosis: a broken humorous! But that has not stopped the boy. No, He still wants to go to class to watch so he doesn't miss anything and now two weeks later, even with his cast still on, he is jumping off the couches and doing his kicks in the middle of the living room with Samuel. Lesson Learned?????? All of this excitement comes just four weeks after a swimming pool accident landing Jack in the ER with two gashes in his head resulting in 5 staples and quite the scare!! Hopefully, that is the last of the drama for a while. This mommy needs a breather!
