Noteable accomplishments

Last Friday the girls recieved their yellow belts in Karate. They were actually set to recieve their yellow belts before we went on vacation, however, our plane left before they could attend the 'moving up' ceremony. Getting them to smile was quite a challenge!

They test every 5 weeks and if they have worked hard and put forth effort at home and at the studio, they recieve a stripe on their belt. I debated on posting pictures everytime they recieved a stripe and figured it was a bigger deal when they actually have more the share! The instructor offered to give them their new belts right when we got back, but we all agreed that it would be more fun to be apart of the ceremony.
It is also great for the kids to see the other people, young and old, who have worked hard to their accomplishments. Here are some pictures of their ceremony/class!

I just had to pop in and tell you how much I enjoyed your comment on A Sacred Calling. It was right on. I have been accused of not having enough faith and not being willing to take up my cross. It isn't true. God has shown me that I can't earn His grace.

I just loved your post and wanted to tell you so!

Karate Pics are awesome!
