Stephanie's next school production is Oliver, she had gone for auditions 2weeks ago and heard the results on Friday before they all left for half term.
I picked up a very dissapointed girl Friday night, she had not got the part of Nancy, but she got the part of one of the flower girls.There are only 5 flower girls, so i was thrilled for her,But to her this was not good enough and so put her on a real downer.
As most mums know when they have a hormonal 11yr old nothing you can say will help, there was no amount of softening the blow that i could give. Bless him Dad came to the rescue, he told her the bit he remembers most in the film was the song" who will buy my wonderfull roses".This helped as her Dad used to sing in a group and even though i say myself he is really quite good and has just been asked to help out his friends for a few gigs this year, He did retire 5 years ago so it looks like i shall have a few saturday nights being a groupie wife again....Steph has a very good little voice and often sings with her dad, which is why i think it hit her so hard that she didn't get picked, but hey at least she is a flower girl and won't get beaten up by old bill sykes..........
