Proud Moments!

Caiden has mastered a HUGE swimming task! I picked him up from swim lessons with Mrs. Stephanie and out of nowhere, he was wearing his green band! At our pool, in order to wear a green band, you have to be able to swim the entire length of the pool. And, he swam it without even knowing he was "testing!" A lifeguard happened to be watching while he was swimming and saw he could do it! He can now swim in he big pool without mommy and daddy (yeah right-he's only 4 1/2!) but more importantly, go down the slides without a life jacket! He's a little fish!


Caiden also tested for his yellow belt in karate and earned his second patch in the same night! What big accomplishments! And, because he is already on his yellow belt with most everyone else in his class still on their white, his teacher wants him to move up to the 5-7 year old class! WOW! He only takes karate once a week so it takes 4, 6-week sessions to move up a belt color! He was so proud and got to celebrate at Chili's with his favorite Molten Lava Cake for dessert!
