YELLOW BELT






Ashlee graduated on Friday to a yellow belt in Tae Kwan Do. She has been in TKD since October and is on her third belt. She loves it! On Friday, she had to break her first board. She got up there and practiced on a pad first and she kicked hard, then he put the board in front of her and she kicked it and I heard her say oww! I got a little nervous after that but she shook it off and tried it again. They can keep trying until they break it or it starts to hurt too much. She kept at it until about the forth kick and she broke it! I was so proud of her that I got all weepy. She was so excited and so were we. It is so rewarding to see your child accomplish something that they worked so hard on. It was a very proud moment for Marvin and I.
