Last May 11, my daughter Yla and my niece Thialyn, joined the karate tournament (Shotokan) at Tagaytay National highs school, and.... surprise... they both won at the kata (exhibition) competition.
And oh by the way, that day was my daughter's (YLA) 12th b-day

, she took home a very nice gift for herself, her trophy.

Yla (the one on the right side with trophy in front) was first runner up and Thialyn her cousin (beside her) was second runner up, they both came home with a trophy...
