Isaac Taekwondo

IsaactaekwondoIsaac competed in his first Taekwondo tournament this last weekend. He won first place in sparring (one on one fighting with only blocks), and second place in the kata or forms.

He was very exciting about competing, and we've had great fun practicing before leaving for school. He taught me to turn my hips when punching, what a great teacher!

Chappel Dulcinea

Sorry for lack of input lately, work has been calling.

Here's the chappel we're looking at


I was explaining to Michael, the meaning of Dulcinea in Don Quixote.  I also asked him to hurry home.

Dulcinea is the object of affection for Don Quixote during his quests.  Every deed, every journey and every quest is made in her name.
A web site describes Dulcinea "... in the tradition of the epic journey motif.  For Odysseus his Penelope, Aeneas his Latinia, Dante his Beatrice and Don Quixote his Dulcinea."
