Joshua has always been a character from the day he was born, his passion is to make people laugh and ensure everyone is happy. To encourage his confidence and help maintain his sense of belonging we enrolled him into drama classes at Stagecoach. I loved performing as a youngster and I wanted Josh to feel at ease in a crowd too and its working.
Well, after missing 3 lessons Joshua returned from holiday straight into his end of term play and to my surprise he remembered all his lines (all 3 of them!) and all the words of the songs too, so he didnt quite get the actions right, but hey, he was away for 3 weeks and they hadnt yet learnt them so I am the proudest mummy around right now. Don't us mummies always find an excuse as to why their child wasn't quite perfect!
It always seems, no matter how bad the performance really is, every parent only sees perfection. Joshua grinned and giggled his way through the show today, he forgot almost every action to all the songs, but who cares, he had fun and did what he does best, make everyone laugh. For me, Josh's play is now a treasured memory and for Josh it will always be a fond part of his childhood...
What a great day.....
