Quinn and Jiu Jitsu

I forgot to mention that Quinn was awarded his orange belt in Jiu Jitsu about a month ago. Jiu Jitsu is different from Karate where you can earn your black belt in a couple years. I'm told it takes ten years to earn a black belt in Jiu Jitsu. This orange belt represents two and a half years of training. Here is one of his instructors, Tony, saying some really nice things about Quinn, one of them being that Quinn is skilled but not arrogant. That's true. Quinn is a humble sort of kid. Congratulations, Quinn.

    I can see the difference in Alex's mouth. That's amazing! Looks like the holidays were good! I'm so glad. We have hit our year and a half mark with Anastasia, and we too have little things to work on, but it is incredible to look back on the progress. And, to realize that even though there is still so much to do and learn, they have come a long way.

    Good job Quinn! FYI it took a little over 5 years for Dal to get his black.
