Two Yellows and a Green

Friday evening was spent in a (very hot) gym, watching a bunch of young karate students show what they've learned the past few months, and celebrate the changing of belt-seasons in their lives. Two of them happened to be my own.

I couldn't be more proud of these two kids, and thank God almost daily that he has given them into my care.

A boy and a girl - different as night and day - but sharing some common human experiences, that always bring me back to the core of myself.

So, I congratulate my new yellow belt and my new green belt, and am very grateful to be a part of what we've now been called - a "Two yellows and a green" (belt) family.
