Karate Tuesday

Brought Samantha to karate after school/work. They had weapons tonight. She was very intense in class, not flighty like she often is. I think it was because Sensei Stacey was her instructor tonight. She likes her. I told her at supper that she was the owner and Samantha's eyes got wide. I figured she knew that. Maybe she did, but she'd forgotten. I told her to always make sure she pays close attention when it's Sensei Stacey because she decides when it's time for the students to advance to their next belt. Hopefully Samantha will be testing for her blue belt in December. She was supposed to test this month, but missed too many classes due to holiday traffic, Halloween closures, etc. She probably wasn't ready to advance anyway. The extra month will make her testing next month more deserving.
