Life Goes On

August 1, 2006 - 11:26 AM by

Yesterday was a big news day, but our big news was that my 7-year-old daughter was promoted to a blue belt in her Seido karate class.

Isn’t her instructor Haggai handsome? He is a second-generation karate instructor. His father Eli, is the “shihan” who runs the Martial Arts Center, and his mother, Suzy, who is the administrator for the school, is usually smiling and happy and upbeat in her little office.

When I came for the belt ceremony, though, she was not herself — she looked stressed and worried. No smile. I quickly realized: she’s got a son in a combat unit in the army.

    2. I have a red belt in taekwondo. I wish my intructor was as cute as Haggai. I pray for the safety of your brave young soldiers.
