Abby went... and she did a fantastic job on the prepared speech. But when it came time for the impromptu, she had a difficult time.
By God's grace, she did make it into the finals, which was another impromptu.
The judges were looking for specific things. So anything outside the box was heavily marked down. Abby came in "last".
She was very disappointed.
She now says she doesn't want to go again.
I hope she will see this as a learning experience and move on and JOIN again next year as a high school student. Isaiah might be recommended as the speech contest candidate next year as well. I hope Alan gets to go every year... until Abby graduates from high school!!! and maybe for two years, both Isaiah and Abby will be in the competition and competing against each other. They will enjoy that!
Seek Him First!
