A while back he was awarded a little "most improved" patch for his uniform (we haven't put it on his uniform yet, much to his annoyance). Technically he's not the MOST improved because there are other kids with the same patch, but oh well. He really has improved since he started though, and we're really proud of him. I think the patch applies quite well.
Then yesterday he came out of class with another patch. An exciting one!
I like the dragons. Evidently this is a promotion patch and it means he's making progress towards the next belt!
Isn't this so classic karate--"Here's a patch for you! That'll be $10 mom and dad!!"
We're very proud of him though, and I can't wait until he learns enough to test up to the next belt. It's nice to see him learning something physically challenging and especially we like to see him learning discipline. Now if only it was less complicated to get him to karate after school now that there's the little Sandy. We'll get the logistics figured out though. Eventually!
Go Max!!!
