Confidence – Thurs 28th April 2016
By Jeannette | April 28, 2016
Oh boy, it’s Thursday already. Part of me is glad it’s nearly the weekend, another just doesn’t want this week to finish because it’s been a good one. Tiring but good.
This little lady has done us proud this week, narrating and singing in the choir in two Oliver evening performances at her school.
We are so immensely proud of her, proud of her wanting to take part and enjoying it. It’s no mean feat putting on a production in any school, but factor in the many SN needs and challenges and … well, it’s just amazing.
D decided tonight that she’d say her narrator words without a script in front of her and, after doing the first one, said “see, I told you I could do it without a script” to the lovely TA next to her, thankfully away from the microphone (!).
Wonderful.
The image above so applies to D, she gets there in her own time at her own pace.
Confidence, my word for the week.
Applies to me too. I went along to a lengthy Board meeting this week and joined in more than previously, giving my views and suggestions. I felt proud of myself…well someone has to!
Something else that’s made us smile tonight are these little cuties:
I wrote about them hatching last week and forgot to link my post up anywhere (typical me), the chicks are just over a week old now and heading off to a farm tomorrow so I’m mega pleased that we saw them – as we walked past the classroom they were in after tonight’s performance.
If I do remember to link this up and someone reads it, enjoy the long weekend Jx

Go, D! Yes, confidence is so hugely helpful in life but incredibly difficult to ‘give’ someone, it has to be acquired. Those chicks are just so sweet, too! Thanks for sharing with #WotW

Speaking out is something that I am working on. Its so hard for me luckily I have another platform to express myself through my blog but I would really want to have the confidence to speak up too =) #wotw
