Karate

Today Ella had her intro lesson to Karate that she "won" at the Madison Street Festival. It was great. The owner gave her a private intro lesson and talked to her about the purpose of karate and what she was going to learn and showed her a few things. He showed her a punch and the star blocks. Ella was SO DARN CUTE! as she followed directions and tried really hard to copy the teacher. Jon was beside himself watching her and almost died of cute. I didn't bring my camera in as that would be distracting, but when we got home Ella showed off some of her new moves. We go in next week for her second lesson and then we have to decide if we can afford lessons or not.
Attention! (Sir!)
