THank you so much guys, yes we will continue to work hard. Actually its now has transformed itself from a hobby to a lifestyle now, not just for Cora, but for our entire family. We are so into this like no one's business. We basically eat, sleep, jj. When my wife and I are at work, there isn't a day that we don't think about JJ. Everyday, I'm always trying to find ways to be a better coach to Cora and try to find ways for her to understand the technique in a more effiecent way. Although I'm not physical able to do the sport, I still love the sport and is a student of the sport so I can be a better coach for my daughter and my son when he is old enough. He is only 1 right now...
Kurzy: thank you brother for the kind words, you know Cora do read all that yall are saying about her and it helps fuel her training even more. To intertain and to inspire other girls is what she's all about. It isn't for the medals or ego for her, its about sharing. You should see her at the gym always willing to help the new kids out. Since she is very technical, the coach ask her to be his assist when there are not enough coaches around. As far as active resistence to the rubber guard, oh the boys here are resisting her alright, being held down by a girl doesn't look good infront of their parents so they have to put up a fight. And now I see, the more they resist her, the better she get.
Dwight: yes brother, working with your kids is very hard, especially when I don't have COACH written on my forehead. Its hard to separate being a dad and a coach at times. For those of you who train your kids, you know what i'm talking about. I would tell her things and she doesn't listen to me, but an hour later when she get to the gym, her coach tell her the exact same thing, and she treats it like it was the 1st time she heard it and its the most profound thing she ever heard...
