David and Goliath

Post by Ogg »

I know I've been posting like a frenzied twat but I'm returning to work next week so please forgive me if I'm going on.

My eleven year old son Josh <a href="http://img29.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img29&image=PIC0006.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img29.exs.cx/img29/1528/PIC0006.th.jpg" border="0" title="Free Image Hosting at www.ImageShack.us" /></a> starred in a school production of 'David and Goliath' this very evening. The end of the school year is nigh and Josh will leave the school after four years to begin Secondary school in September. How fast they grow...
Anyway, Josh had one of the lead roles as 'Goliath' and literally stole the show with his acting and singing 'I'm broader than a barrel, bigger than a tree...' :-) Praise was forthcoming from all after the show. We knew he could sing well but we had no idea how natural he would be on stage. I'm so proud :-) .

You mean you're a not proud Father already? Your children have to reach a certain maturity before you'll bestow pride upon them? Maybe customs are diferent down here in the south-west &#58;-&#41;

I am a proud father ( ask the Mrs, she thinks its sickening the way I dote on them). Its just that I've not had the chance to get proud of them in such a situation. I can't wait.

a star is born. good for you and your family, theater makes a well rounded kid. I worked as a waterfront director at a dance and theater camp . Out of all the different types of camps i have worked over the years the dance and theater camp kids were the most well behavied and the most outgoing people i have ever met. They were wonderful. Lets not talk about the 5th Avenue brats i taught swimming and sailing to at a very expensive horse camp. They were the absolute worst kids i have ever met,nasty, spoiled and got no love from their parents who were to busy jetting around the world in their planes and boats. A theater child is outgoing and can relate to everyone. good for you guys, love them dearly because they will soon grow up, it is such a short time.

Makes note to remember the name "Josh Ogg." hehe But on yer site it says his name is "Jashua." Is that a typo or is that his name and you call him "Josh?"


Seriously, Ogg, (and yes, I know your last name. I have it here somewhere *searches through her stalker files* ahhhh, here it is...Darren Faulkner, husband to...oh, I guess I shouldn't read off the bio. :-# ) I am happy to see such a proud papa! Keep us informed how things go.
Onward and Upward!
