Take A Stand – Ride for a Cause

Posted in Family

On Thursday, while coming home from TaeKwonDo, Daddy was telling Munchkin about the upcoming motorcycle ride for abuse prevention/awareness. She decided that she would join him on this ride. On Tuesday morning, she got up early to join Daddy for the event and ride. I know it meant a lot to D to have her there with him.

Munchkin’s green belt testing was scheduled for the day before Easter which means that we ended up missing it. We had talked to her instructors earlier in the week to see her options, so we knew that she would be able to test in a couple of weeks if she didn’t make that testing. Originally, the retesting was set for Saturday, April 13th, but they bumped it up to Friday, April 12th. This actually worked out better for us due to Daddy helping with the instruction of a motorcycle course Friday and Saturday. For this test, Munchkin needed to know…
