Delia came up to me last week while I was getting ready for karate class and after hemming and hawing a bit, she said, " I think I might like to go back to karate."
I felt a big swoop of hope, but said casually, "Well, I think that would be a good idea. Let's talk to Mr. Sidner."
So today I stopped by to sound out Mr. Sidner, who was more than overjoyed at the idea. She's going to start back on a month to month casual basis for now. Unfurtunately, she'll have to get a new uniform and new gear, because she's outgrown everything. Mr. Tobin suggested she might wear Fiona's first degree uniform pants (a suggestion that grates upon poor Miss Fiona's soul because she still resents that Delia is now taller than her).
She'll start back with the black belt class tomorrow. And just think: after I pass the black belt exam April 30, ALL THREE OF US WILL BE IN THE SAME CLASS, for the first time since we started in 2003.
