That was really thoughtful.<BR/><BR/>Congratulations to her for getting the purple belt. I remember we were at BJs when she told you she signed up for the black belt club! That is such a great idea to keep someone motivated.<BR/><BR/>It was also awesome of you to get her started down that path. It looks like it's going to pay off for her well!Ano the Bloggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02370184544984952064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2626196784918762376.post-73876183860659130562007-06-12T08:51:00.000-07:002007-06-12T08:51:00.000-07:00Flat Coke - It is exciting!!

If I ever open my own martialarts school, I am gonna do the same thing!<BR/><BR/>And... she started to blush and couldn't believe her eyes! SHe was in shock and then started to jump up and down and hugged me and kissed me (my cheek) and then openned it and said she LOVED IT! And there was a lot of "Thank you, Tia!" over and over. It was cute! I am glad she liked it and hope she continues to keep it up!Jane Doehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18236128792369365765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2626196784918762376.post-38376654315013023092007-06-11T21:53:00.000-07:002007-06-11T21:53:00.000-07:00I think the "Journey to Black Belt Excellence" (wh...I think the "Journey to Black Belt Excellence" (what the sign said on the wall) is an amazing idea. A lot of people drop out cuz they lose sight of the goal. This puts the goal in your face, literally. And it holds you accountable cuz people who see your belt up there know you haven't gotten there yet. And it's competitive because you want to get yours down in less time than other people, since they post the date you join the journey!<BR/><BR/>So...I was waiting to read the result of your neice's reaction after she opened her eyes and saw her present. You built it up and didn't give us the pay-off! Did she like it? Did she like the color?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2626196784918762376.post-59705432436305794682007-06-11T19:43:00.000-07:002007-06-11T19:43:00.000-07:00How exciting!!
