Jackson's a YELLOW belt!

Our boy keeps surprising us.  He has done very well in karate and is still actually really enjoying it.  Last week, he tested for his yellow belt and passed... Also, he AND Cole were invited into the leadership program!  As a bonus, since they are in leadership now, they got their sparring gear, which includes a new weapon to train with each session.  The first weapon is a sword, so the boys were pretty stoked.
Jackson was beyond thrilled to be in leadership - which opens doors for him if he chooses to continue pursuing karate.... and it means he has a "gold" stripe on his belt... (cuz Jenny and I have learned that THAT is super important! HA!).   Jackson has grown so much since he started doing karate, and I'm so thankful we opted to sign him up for this!!
