Tim and I both skipped work yesterday and spent the day together. It was so much fun! It seems like weekends are so filled with catching up on housework and everything else, and the next thing we know it's Monday again and back at work. Try taking a day off in the middle of the workweek; it's nice! It did make today a little harder to be back there, one more day- I can handle that!
Micah's belt exam was last month. She advanced to the top of three brown belts and her junior black belt exam will be this fall. She asked me not to tell or invite anyone except Auree... and Auree is her karate friend. She said, "only karate people there except you guys." Copper was in NY, so it was just Tim and I and Dakota. Kota's phone died about one hour into the almost four hours we were there, and what a trooper. Haha. Micah is awesome! While waiting they had to do all sorts of "the grind" exercises. Here she had to put her feet on her friend (boy Ronan) legs and then do push ups. It looked really hard. Jujitsu fighting with friend (girl) Ronan... Three hours in and she just sat and took a break. She looked beat. I'm grateful for girl Ronan's friendship with Micah. They're all such great friends with her. Ronan, Kristine, and Micah Ms. Kassie came back to see everyone who was advanced testing! Micah was thrilled; this is her mentor...
Can I do that for my mommy job? I love the kids, but it has been so very crazy for TWO straight weeks that I need a me day.
