Karate Games

Silver Medalist


Rylee was worn out from a long day of swimming and playing at summer camp.  When I reminded her that it was time for karate.  She drug her feet but I reminder her it was testing night and she had agreed to help grade the other students.  Of she went.

An hour & half later she made it home with a big smile on her face and a silver medal around her neck.  It was Summer Karate Games and she decided to participate in the sparring event.  She went into the gold medal round against a green belt student who happens to be the mom of another student.  Her reach was longer and was about a foot taller but Rylee gave as good as she got.  She got the silver medal.

We are so proud of her trying her hardest and being successful.  Now I wish she would listen and practice more.
