Lil' Dragons

Ryan is participating in a weekly karate class through the YMCA called, Lil Dragons. Yesterday marked the halfway point in the class and all the students demonstrated what they've learned so far. Ryan never wants to go to karate (he complains about going every week, although I can still get him there without too much hassle), but he always seems to have a good time once we're there. It was fun seeing how far he's come in just six weeks. He was thrilled to receive a ribbon for his efforts!
