Hayden and his purple belt test

Well Hayden has been in Tae Kwon Do now for 1 year. He has received his yellow belt and yesterday he tested for purple. I can't believe how far he has come in TKD. Most days he never wants to go and then once he is there he generally likes it. Except when he has to do push-ups. When he tested for his yellow belt - there were other white belts testing too. So Hayden wasn't alone. However, for purple belt - Hayden was on his own. We are so very proud of him.

The twins were a bit restless but that is to be expected. I am just glad they allowed us to stay and watch his whole time. We were outside after this to ensure we were respectful of the others testing.


Then Hayden for his final test had to break a board with his foot. It took him a few tries due to him not using the heel of his foot - so he couldn't break it. But he did....and he paid the price for it....
