Dalton achieved his brown belt tonight at karate class. Hard to believe that it is almost done ( and school that matter) for another year. As you can see by his little grin he was quite proud of himself too. He does a good job. He won't be returning to this class next year though. he has learned all he can here now and will be joining the class at the base that incorporates kick boxing. He is looking forward to that.
We might start at some point this summer but we will see how busy we are otherwise it will wait until fall. For him though it can't start soon enough. But I also tried to remind him that it will somewhat interfere with the activities that we plan on going and doing this summer. So he decided to pass until September.
He spent most of the year this year as a sempai. Helping to teach the others in the class. He enjoyed that too. Now all the kids are looking forward to the end of year pizza party next week! 
Mom and Dad are so proud of you Dalton!! We love you so much! XO

He kills me with his proud little grin. Afraid to show how happy he is but just having a hard time containing himself.
So after the belts were all done the boys had their picture taken with Sensai. Tyson had to join in too!! Nick also got his brown belt and I expect that he might join Dalton in the fall too. We'll have to wait and see.
Mom and Dad are so proud of you Dalton!! We love you so much! XO
