Here is Ben's graduation performance. Not the welcome speech, but the song. It's quite possibly the most blurry video ever taken and you can barely hear it, but here it is!

What song is he singing? I could barely here and didn't want to put it on full blast while I have clients here.

That applebottom jeans song.

Oh. my. gosh. Soooo cute! And he's in front of so many people. What a brave little guy!

That's why I was so proud of him. He had some real anxiety about it before hand, but faced his fears and spoke for the crowd twice and remember all of his lines! He told me afterwards that he was so glad it was over. He said he was tired of stressing over it. He's such a little man now.

Cew, that was absolutely adorable.  He even said flo instead of floor like a proper gangsta.

I firmly believe in public speaking for kids. (I run a children's theatre group.) So many adults are terrified of it. He should be very proud of himself. Yay Ben!

That's so awesome! I really think I wouldn't be where I am today if my parents hadn't put me in theater classes when I was a kid. I was painfully shy, but they put me in classes when I was 7 and it really opened me up. I took classes from 7 - 18. It was an awesome experience.

Very adorable.  You must be so proud!

Same story here-almost exactly. I was ridiculously shy. I started acting at 7 and volunteered with the group that I run now. It helped me tremedously.

I volunteered too. When I was in HS, I was an assistant in the kids classes. I was really into theater when I was younger. I miss it.

Cew, he and Andy could form an act. I can see it now. I wish I coul upload the video of him singing his "rock-n-roll" song while he watched his reflection in the french doors.
