We have a Black Belt in the House

In April, Ethan passed his long-awaited black belt test in Tae Kwon Do.  He started studying TKD in the fall of 2009, so he's spent 3-4 days each week, year-round, for four years at American Dragon Martial Arts.   He has not complained once about going.  Not once.  He's always ready to go.  Amazing.
