Our older three kids have been really working hard. All three have graduated from white belt to orange belt. They are so cool to watch, especially when they are breaking boards, and working with weapons. Seth was first to graduate out of the three. He worked with both Jared and Hayley and helped them graduate too. We are so proud of all of them.
Jared was the next to graduate. They have to memorize a set of seventeen steps. He did it and also passed off weapons and another series. Seth was glad to have someone join him in the more advanced class. Take a look at a roundhouse kick by Jared below. Watch out Chuck Norris!
Hayley was last. She joined karate two weeks after the boys, so she worked very hard to catch up. If you know Hayley you know she does not do well under pressure. We got there for her graduation and she looked over at me and said, "Mom I have forgotten how to do everything!" I got her to calm down before the judge came in and she did great. It was funny and so Hayley!

I think most parents who homeschool do it for the right reasons but I have been so impressed with how you are making good intentions a reality. You are an amazing family and we will certainly miss associating with you on a regular basis. Thank you for being our friends and wonderful examples! I love the band photos and karate, such talented little people!
I want the boys to do karate, where do you go? Amazing fun.
