First Words

August 11, 2014 · In: BABY, Uncategorized

untitled-8100087“Hey, your baby’s only 2 months old!” 

He’s part Asian (Korean), so this first word is pretty obvious. It is “GI.” BAHAHAHA. It is the word for that white two-piece outfit you wear in Karate. Although Karate is Japanese, it IS Asian so I totally get him. 

We’ve heard this word a handful of times. He seems to say it when he is angry. It may  be some kind of superhero thing where he calls for his fighting costume when he’s mad. Wow, he’s got such a great imagination. 

It could also be the costume he wants for Haloween. That would be pretty cool too.

P.S. I’m a red belt in Tae Kwon Do but from when I was 16 years old where I only sparred with 12 year old boys who were my size. At first they didn’t want to hit a girl…until they started getting beat up by me, a chunky teenage girl with flying fists, in front of their dads. Our mom made us do martial arts so we could annihilate any possible assailant. I don’t think my husband knows this and I want to keep it that way.

    Loving the first word! Seeing that his mom is a Tae Kwan Do master, it’s a very fitting first word for him! Hopefully the hubby skips this weeks post so he doesn’t discover your hidden talent for ass kicking! 😉

    such a pretty picture 🙂 and so funny about your son’s first word! and oh my gosh… i took tae kwon do when i was little and i was the only girl in my class. i quit after yellow belt after my master decided to use me as an “example” and humiliated me in front of everyone. apparently my husband also took tae kwon do and he told his “quit story” – he rammed his bike into the store sign that was out in the sidewalk and he peddled away right when the master saw him! he never went back afterwards. i laughed so hard when he told me his story 🙂

      Hi, Jane!! Oh man…shaming is THE worst! I’m laughing so hard over your husband’s “quit story!” That is hilarious! There was a little kid who would try to lick everyone and our teacher would shame him for it. He probably had Pica!

      Oh, Pam, in my head I feel like he’s smarter than me…all babies for that matter. 🙂 They know what’s important while I’m freaking out about getting the clothes folded. 🙂

It’s not pretending and it’s definitely not instant results.

It’s the moment you stop negotiating with yourself and start making decisions from who you already believe you are.

Saying “I’m a runner” doesn’t magically make you one, but it does change what you choose to do next-
the habits.

That’s how change actually sticks.

it becomes automatic.

These were just things I had to go through on the journey.

It’s why I was sad but at the same time understanding that everything always works out.

that’s the person I choose to be-

Someone who knows everything is going to be ok.

One day, I decided to stop letting my circumstances determine the outcomes that I wanted.

Dare I say it but I felt old too.

Then I just decided that, even though I was in this stage of life, I was still going to achieve my goals and have a body that I wanted.

I changed who I was on the inside.

I started telling myself that I was vibrant and beautiful and full of energy and life.

All the sudden I started to believe it.

I ate healthier automatically.

I lost over 20 pounds.
