Life right now.

Elijah had another belt test.

He is now a green belt in Tang Soo Do KyoHoe Kwan. Don't let the photo fool you. He really is happy. He just has his serious testing face on.

There's his happy, silly face. He's happy because now that he's a green belt, he can spar. I, on the other hand, have mixed emotions about this achievement. I'm so very proud of him, and yet, the sparring makes this mom a bit nervous.

We finally got Elijah's belt rack (a Christmas gift) up on his wall. We'll need to purchase another one before long.

I started knitting this cardigan using this yummy yarn - a Christmas gift from my best friend.

Sometimes while I knit, I get to listen to Miss M practice. She is so talented. Maybe someday she can teach me to play. 

We celebrated the kids recent academic achievements with root beer floats. So yummy. They tasted like summer.

These two are so over snow. I don't blame them. It's been a long winter...and it's still going. Snow is falling right now actually. Sigh. Here's hoping spring comes soon.
