I tried on your shoes for those two minutes, just to experience how it would feel watching your own young one on centre stage. Wow, Al!!! You must be fit to bursting watching Clíodhna so confident and competent on stage!

“There, peeping among the cloud-wrack above a dark tor high up in the mountains, Sam saw a white star twinkle for a while. The beauty of it smote his heart, as he looked up out of the forsaken land, and hope returned to him.

― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King

Again, marvellous performance. Very confident and comfortable on stage.
