  2. Hi Robert,
    I thank you for all your great inspirations , I had a great time following your blog with all the fresh ideas you had for your advocacy plans. Thanks for the encouragement in advocating my plans. Although I have always had a shyness in my goals to speak out and let my voice be heard, I always end up pulling through and getting it all out. And I do enjoy singing for the kids more than I do for the club. My nerves always get the best of me but I learn everyday that I can do it.
