Without further ado...

Here it is: the long-awaited Regency Park Elementary Talent Show. There were some twenty-odd acts, most of them comprised of genuinely talented children singing, dancing, and making music. Toss in the occasional magic act or gymnastic routine, and voila! A talent show. And then there was Miles.



What is most impressive to me about Miles is his absolute and total confidence in himself. There's no nerves, no what-if-I-mess-up fear at all. He just strolls out there and goes for it--I think it never occurs to him that he'll be anything but brilliant, and if he falls on his face, well, that's entertainment too, right? What I wouldn't give for just an ounce of his self-assurance. With that kind of attitude, he's bound to have some talent (even if it is somewhat bizarre). I love his pizazz. He really is my little bit of sunshine. Enjoy.
