The pic was taken on Dec 4th. My other 2 sons (25,and 16) have other interests.
    That is so great!! My daughter now 15 took Karate at age 4 to age 7 she was almost a black belt, but did not want to do it again. I have tried to talk her into doing it again but still not interested. I know how proud you must be of your children for such acomplishments! :XD: :thumbup: :mrgreen:

    That's so neat. Have a nephew and two of his kids who teach. One is in college and started her own small class for fellow students.

    How wonderful! It is so nice to see children (young adults) doing constricutive things rather than watching tv and playing video games

    I remember my DD saying when the boys were young that she didn't care what sport the boys got into just so it wasn't hockey. Well guess what the youngest one is into? Hockey is not just for winter time it is a year around sport around here.
