Our Lil' Dragon


Hi-ya! Malia just finished her Lil' Dragons karate class this week. She loved her uniform... the class not so much. It took a lot of bribing and convincing to get her to go to class. Every time I asked her why she didn't like it she replied, "I just don't like to kick!". Once I finally got her into class she did well and was super excited to get stickers at the end. It was an eight class session and I was really tempted to switch her to another class so I didn't have to battle with her. However, I felt it important to teach her to stick it out and play along, even if it wasn't her favorite thing to do.... "I just want to dance, Mommy" was what I often heard. We are going to take a break from classes since we have block leave coming up. Maybe gymnastics next?

I just don't like to kick, that is a good reason :) She looks super cute.
