Get any comforting news latley?

Yesterday I was told that our 5 year old Granddaughter completed her first week of Karate classes and her Sensei says she shows good potential. I find it pretty comforting thinking she will be able to take care of her self when she gets older. Cheers!

    Namaste :) :)
    That is comforting news. Congratulations to her.  It's also great her parents gave her the opportunity to learn as a child.

    I wish I had learned when I was young.  I am tempted to try it now not for necessarily for self preservation but for the discipline.

    Very Cool Nanoose!

    Ya its way neat - she showed me her karate move - stance - punch - stance  it looked pretty adorable but I could also see that in the future if a teenage boy tries to take advantage of her he will be running home for his mommy. Cheers!

    No but I could sure use some right about now.
    Actually, hearing about your grandchild made me smile.  That was comforting.

    My eldest great-niece is taking karate.  She's going to be 10, so she's more advanced, but when I watch the videos her parents post and I see her do the high kicks, the lunges, the backflips - I realize that she is amazingly agile.  Glad your granddaughter is learning to take care of herself.  Very important.

    Her parents also have her in dance class so maybe someday our Granddaughter will be a Ballerina/Ninja/School teacher (she wants to grow up to be a teacher like her mother). Cheers!

    I hope she does well in both classes and in school.  We need good teachers. :)
