Read above title. Today wasn't that great. I hope it gets better. We are going to a play at six tonight. That should be fun. Watching armature kids do their thang. Their thang! thang! I think I will make that a word. There. This is where I do my thang! Maw thang! This is fun! THANG THANG THANG! You would think I have better things to do.
Well this has been a fun day all in all. We went out to exercise the dogs and me and mom did our kata's! It is quite hard to NOT laugh when she gets totally disoriented.
"So I have to have this foot here?"
'no mom that is a back stance. Your heels are inline'
"but if we have to shift like this and swing our arm around like that while doing an inside/outside block how does that work?"
'Well lets go look at the video'
"Well he does it like that. But Sensei Chris told us to do it this way!"
'Well Shihan is a higher rank then him so lets do it shihan's way"
and many other things. Oh well! Hopefully one day I will become in leadership and tell people what to do and such. Brynna was bragging to mom about if "I ever become a kohai then I would be correcting people 24/7!" and I took much pleasure in telling her that "that wasn't the point" because it can be discouraging. By golly that application for leadership is hard! Especially the references.
This concludes another great day in the life of me! Good luck peeps!
"Just doing my thang"
"Thang"...?
ReplyDeleteLately, I've been trying to squelch bossiness in some of my bossy little children. You ever notice how a really great teacher inspires? And they don't tell you how wrong you are, they encourage you to try your best and keep on trying. It's very cool!
ReplyDeleteAlso, you have a very cool and intelligent mom.
