What's in a Belt?

Hmm....We were recovering from the trip whole of last week. We had the taek-won-do belt test on friday. Ed got his red belt and Dhevi Lellow belt (finally some color in the uniform). Dhevi broke two boards (Instructor Tu was surprised because both were bad boards and everyone congratulated Dhevi since it was her first belt). Master Choi asked Ed to tie Dhevi's belt. Workwise we had to get back full force because Dhevi production cycle has started (O mi god).




We went to Sizzle India for our dinner and got something for Suchi and Palani too, then went to pick them up. After the good Indian food, Dhevi started to sleep, and Ed thought of trying short cut to Midway airport. His bad luck the there were road closure and badly lit roads...Ed lost the way and tried to call many of his friends (guess everyone was snoring heavily by then). Dhevi woke up now and then to give unwanted advises and promptly went back to sleep (one Advice actually led them to the correct way ---unlike the "oh stop...it's red light scream"). Good enough reason to put Ed in a bad mood for rest of the night. Finally around 11:50 we picked them up. It turned 12 on the way back....It's the wish and kiss time. Back at home Ed was on the floor snoring.

Gift Time: Ed got DHevi iDog (actually now it feels like we have a cute pet - no maintanance except the batteries). Suchi had got Dhevi, a pink elephant, $1000000 cookie, a charm bracelet and "life is good" back bag. (Feels like a gift for 12 year old-Evreything was cute....but tell me If you know Suchi what else would you expect?) Palani didn't want to get in this, he gave a sweet card and a book "Virgin in the Art"
