karate chop!

Thomas has started karate classes! It's a beginner's class offered through the city that he's taking with his pal, Tyler. Today's class was the third in the series. Thomas generally does not enjoy taking classes. He loves the idea of them and even loves the first class, but then he doesn't want to do them anymore. I gave up on classes for him because of this. But then he started to ask for karate classes a few months ago -- and even more importantly, he's enjoying them now that he's taking them! After class today we bought him one of the martial arts uniforms and in two weeks he'll get the belt. I've heard the elementary school where he'll be attending Kindergarten in the fall offers karate as an "enrichment activity" after regular school hours. I hope so because I think he'll really enjoy them.
