Because? He somehow convinced his mom to attend "Bring Your Mom to TaeKwonDo" month at his martial arts school.
Mr. Adams, the instructor, is running a special offer of free taekwondo lessons for a month for moms of his students, in honor of Mother's Day. And the students who get their moms to attend earn a patch for their uniform.
Who am I to deprive Travis of his first patch?
Yes, it's true folks, I've been honing my ninja skills.
I attend the adult class, Monday and Wednesday evenings until 9p.m. I generally don't take Travis because I get home well past his bedtime. The first night, however, I let him come so he could watch his mom learning all those moves. He was pretty pumped up about it.
I brought the iPad, so he wouldn't get bored. I don't think he watched me during class for a nanosecond. He had a crowd of kids around him the whole time while he wowed them with his Angry Birds skills.
My class is a bit different than the 6-to-12 yr old class that Travis attends and that I'm familiar with.
The adult class is HARD. I'm talking a real workout. With jumping drills and kicking and punching and all. Then we learn and practice self-defense moves, which is pretty cool.
Next month, in honor of Father's Day, on Monday and Wednesday evenings....
You guessed it.
Ben will be sitting at home passed out in his recliner.
