Evelyn Recites "How Tinkerbell Got Her Name"

Evelyn participated in her school's Talent Show recently. She decided to tell a story. She has been listening to a Tinkerbell audiobook each night for about a month, and had most of it memorized, so she decided to recite the first part of that story. She was not afraid of speaking to an audience at all and did such a great job. When she could not remember what came next, rather than say "um, ah..." she just paused. I don't know much about public speaking, but I'm pretty sure that she managed her lapse in memory perfectly.

Bev, that is incredible!!!!!! Wow! I love how she is unperturbed and natural!
FANTASTIC JOB EVELYN!!!
She has an amazing gift for speaking! Could you imagine what she could be doing with scripture?! Wow!!! She's a natural story teller! I'd love to hear her tell the stories of Jesus! Just like the hymn, "I love to tell the story of unseen things above, of Jesus and His Glory, of Jesus and His love!"

Wow! so impressed! she defiantly has a talent! She looked at everyone and smiled and used expression and the pause was handled very well. Most kids would have calmed up when they made a mistake!

Way to go Evelyn
