We made Paper Plato’s sister!

So when I was in The Ultimate Fighter house, I made a man out of toilet paper rolls, and named him “Plato,” because his head was a paper plate. lol

When I went into the gym the next day, our little 9-year old jiu-jitsu star in our kids class Rhyanna told me that she really liked Plato and wanted to make one. I laughed and told her to start collecting toilet paper rolls. A month later, she said, “I have a lot! Can you come over and make it with me?” I said, “After my fight, yes.”

So…it’s after my fight, so today I went over and we built another Plato! Rhyanna decided it’d be “Plato’s sister” and we’d call her “Playco.” hahaha! I had so much fun! Those kids are so cute! And they were so excited about it, and were jumping all over me trying to choke me. “Love chokes.” haha jiu-jitsu kids.
