Jonathan started his Taek-won Do Karate classes acouple of weeks ago at the Harrisburg Institute. It's for 4-5 year olds. A bit overwhelming at first, we are trying to get use to it. The tenants of taekwondo is Courtesy*Integrity*Self-Control*Perserverance*Indomitable Spirit. Some Korean language is incorporated in the class.
After one of the classes, we treated the boys for a fun evening at Chuck E Cheese. It's been a fun place for the boys to play and eat yummy pizza. This time we actually got to meet the famous Chuckie mouse!
We've been getting together with a new group called Ta-ri (means Bridge in Korean). This weekend was it's 5th anniversary. Here is a picture of Adam 
wanting to learn how to play the korean drums. He was the first to go right up and dance around with the girls and was the lead of the line dancing. Pretty brave for a 2-year old. 
Most of the children there were adopted from American families. It's awesome how the American families are learning the Korean traditions and trying to grow the "bridge" between the two cultures. We'll join the group again and make some more friendships.

Jonathan and Adam had fun looking at all the pumpkins. Soon, they were treating them like bowling balls! 
And on a final note, I wanted to share that Jim and I are on an amazing journal of 'Love Dare" for 40+ days. From the inspiring movie "FireProof" we have committed our faith to God and will continue this Hope and Love. We know that we can not change one another, but we can leave it in the hands of God to do the work for us. God is awesome. A special thank you for my own mom who has always believed in us and always prayed with me, and a big thank you for my friend Brenda who gave me so much honest guidance in a down to earth kind of christian way with resources I keep going back to, and most of all to my husband who didn't hesitate one bit to move forward and get out of this together. One day we will share our story as christians very much like Kirk and Chelsea.
