Proud Parenting Moment
Mollie has been a member of the Australian Youth Choir since the beginning of this year. She has religiously attended rehearsals, travelling an hour each way every Tuesday. She has attended three performances at Sydney Town Hall, one of which was with the Keystone Boychoir. She has taken part in a CD recording with a well known Australian recording artist, Darryl Cotton. Tonight, she came home from rehearsals with her annual report. She received top marks (the equivalent of all ‘A’s’) and has progressed from being in the Probationer Choir to the Training Choir, a huge achievement. Needless to say, she is a little bit excited. So am I!
I can’t sing a note. Not one! I’m offkey, and proud of it. Any musical talent she has (she also plays the violin) clearly comes from her father. It pains me to admit that, but there you go. We are now listening to the CD she took part in recording. The recording took place a few months ago. It was freezing cold. We had to take our coffee intravenously, because it was early, it was cold, and it was a long, long process. Tonight, with the report, she brought the CD home. It’s not bad. And did I mention Mollie is performing on it??? Am I proud of her? You’d better believe it! Kiddo, you have done exceptionally well, with little or no input from me! I’m out of here: I have copies of CD’s to make!!!
