Sir O outside his comfort zone

Sir O finished up the Let's Play Music 3-year program a week ago and performed in a little recital.
One of many, many epic mom fails I've managed recently shows up in the beginning of this video, as I completely spaced preparing an introduction for him to memorize for this song he composed.   So his already uncomfortable moment in front of a crowd is made infinitely more uncomfortable by not being prepared with anything to say.  I think he's forgiven me, but I haven't forgiven myself yet.



Anyway, despite his perennial reticence, I think this experience has actually given him a lot of confidence, not to mention a stellar music theory base. I'm super impressed with it, and the rest of my boys will be starting in the Fall with their first year.  So really, I must be impressed to be willing to undergo getting 3 kids to practice on a regular basis.  Torture.
