Q's Gift

Q just had his Tae Kwon Do Christmas Party/Belt Testing. Q still doesn't like doing his belt testing with other kids and in front of all the parents, so his teacher put a lot of thought and effort into building up his confidence for the event. It's the biggest testing of the year. Instead of just 50 - 60 kids for each testing session, all 180 kids would be testing together with parents and grandparents watching. The day before, Q had his last practice and still was not happy about the idea. Q's teacher sat him down and explained that his best effort would be his gift and his way of showing appreciation to his parents and grandparents that would be there watching. B and I weren't sure if he would go through with it. Actually, B was pretty sure he would chicken out. Q did the entire testing so well and even did a solo demo! We couldn't be more proud of Q and all of his hard work.
