me: nosh's teacher called me aside yesterday saying - "can I tell you how immensely talented at art she is"?
me: she's just too good
sis: wowww
me: and nosh looked away like she didnt know us
me: and i asked her to convince noshi to sign up for painting classes
me: bcos ive been telling her and she wont listen
me: found one smack bang behind my house
me: they have classes for kids and it looks cosy and appealing
me: the kid is shy
me: the teacher was like - you have something good going here...like, really
me: i hope i can manage to get her to go
sis: just inspire her
me: i tried
sis: show her kids who paint
me: she's happy when i inspire her
sis: on the net n stuff
me: but to go for classes there is this initial fear that started now
me: never was like that before
me: i wish it would go away
me: i guess i shud go with her and sit it out
me: which i would if i didnt have mr.ruckus with me
me: i'll try one way or the other
me: the teacher keeps telling her she's creative
me: i'll work it out
sis: gud girl
sis: i remember when shyness suddenly came and descended upon me sometime as a kid
me: thats the reason i put her in this camp bcos it had her fav stuff even though we lost some money when we quit the other one
sis: i dun think its a good sign
sis: shake her out of it
sis: tactfully
me: no, it's not
me: i know why it happened
me: bcos she's surrounded by boys and their boisterousness it eclipses her quiet but talented personality
me: this kid sees everyone reacting to them and her little voice is lost somewhere
me: im always fighting for her
sis: she'll find her balance another way
me: today is our day together anyway
