About a year ago Lincoln mentioned that he wanted to try Karate. As usual, I said something about how we would have to look into that, and then promptly forgot about it. Then last Spring, the kids brought home a paper about an after school program that let the kids try Tae Kwon Do, twice a week, for six weeks for thirty dollars. I thought that we couldn't beat that deal, so I signed Lincoln up for the class. It turned out that he LOVED it. He's been doing Tae Kwon Do ever since. Last week he tested for, and got, his green belt! This is belt #4 of 12 until he is a black belt. He already has his white, yellow and orange belts. Here are some pictures of his green belt testing.
The kids get a medal for having good report cards.
Part of testing for green belt, and higher belts, is learning and demonstrating sparring skills. Don't they look so cute, I mean cool, in their sparring pads?
Lincoln always spars the same kid. They are the same size and skill level, and kind of look alike. It's so cute, I mean cool!
Receiving his green belt.

Way to go!!!!!
