On Friday twin boy and girl will take to the stage to display their outstanding dramatic ability in a one off performance of “The Harvest.”
Living with two would be stars can be trying and myself and he who helped create them are trying to be supportive by ignoring the diva style tantrums and helping them learn their lines.
Twin girl is closing the show with the profound words;
“Do you know that in our country too there are families who cannot afford basic food and that is very sad.”
We rehearsed last night.
She stood before me, back straight, eyes focused, toes turned slightly outwards and hands glasped together. We read through the lines before hers and then in a serious but heartfelt voice she began….
“Do you know that in our country too there are families who cu*tin afford basic food and that is very sad.”
We need to rehearse more……
(*insert a ‘n’ here)

Bibsey Mama says
Well, it’s a serious issue and sometimes you have to use strong language to get people’s attention.
janeblackmore says
Exactly! Just what I said!
mothersalwaysright says
I love her!
janeblackmore says
She’s fab!
Trish @ Mum's Gone to says
Haha! That reminds me of my niece many years ago who couldn’t pronounce the word ‘elephants’. She always called them ‘elicu*ts’ which was great fun when looking at the Elmer books!
janeblackmore says
Oh that’s fab!
raremum says

janeblackmore says
Was shameful! Simply shameful

A born performer – a star hope you got the video camera ready….could make some money if you send it to Harry Hill
janeblackmore says

sarsm says
Definitely film it. Who knows what will happen!!
janeblackmore says
It has just been announced that parents are not allowed! Could that be because of her language?
michelletwinmum says

Classic. Mich x
janeblackmore says

ChocOrangeCityMum says
At least it will make the Harvest festival one to remember!! She will go down as a school legend 🙂
janeblackmore says

Merry says
Ah.
I once had to say art garfunkel to intro a song in house music at senior school. I couldn’t stop saying gunkfunkel. And I did it in the performance too.
Rehearsal, as they say, is futile.
janeblackmore says
Lol! However you are not filling me with any faith x
