Yellow and orange...
Sometimes I wish I were in the 21st century. Because then I'd have a digital camera and could post pictures to the internet and there'd be a base on Mars.
But anyway, on Monday Kate and Robert both passed their belt tests -- Kate is now a yellow belt and Robert is orange (second and third ranks, respectively -- they have purple, blue, green, brown, then black after this).
Kate had set herself the goal of getting a yellow belt before the summer was over, and now she has... and man is she a joy to watch. A nine-year-old with a cumulative ten years of experience in gymnastics, soccer, and ice skating, she's pretty coordinated and strong, and when you add brains and attention and enthusiasm... well, she's basically the whole package, as far as I can tell...
