Proud Martial Arts Mom

Tonight was Ros' Tae Kwan Do class. After every class they pick one kid to lead the others in the black belt pledge. This time, they picked Ros to lead it. The instructor had to help her out a bit with the words, but she came through like a trooper.

I'm so proud.

What a great story! Of course your daughter is taking tae kwon do. LOL! I love it.

It was her choice, and she's totally loving it. (I am, of course, pleased. And secretly relieved that she is not into hockey.)

That's great!

It's very cool. And I'm pleased as punch that martial arts seems to be her big love of the moment.

She didn't just say "Hello, my name is Ros, you looked sideways at my mother, prepare to die?" Erm, sorry, wrong film.

Proud and rightly so. *g*

Heh.

No.

But it's kind of amazing to see her get up in front of 20 other kids and lead them through the pledge.

That is very cool. I know you're proud of your kidlet. :)

Isn't your daughter into martial arts too?

My oldest daughter studies martial arts. She has her brown belt. My son in law has his black belt and teaches at his dojo. They both do the kenpo style. Now my youngest got her black belt when she was in high school but she doesn't practice any longer. She went to a wado ryu dojo when she was into karate.

Not so slowly, but surely.

Hey cool! Tae Kwan Do and public speaking! :)

Put that way... *g*

Totally off topic but she can be proud of you, too. I just read your Christmas Wishes (recced in [livejournal.com profile] ci5hq) and adored it! The ending made me feel all warm and fuzzy - I don't usually read fic over breakfast but this was short enough, and I was so glad I'd plunged in - a great start to the day!

Awww, thanks. Warm and fuzzy is good. *g*
