I will never forget the first day I sang at a Celeste Football game. As I made my way up to the press box I heard the murmurs of the people. “Who is she? Where did she come from? What grade is she in?” it was the sound of disbelief that I could sing, as the announcer announced my name a few of my friends cheered me on. It was as if the whole town stopped when I started singing. The silent chill of surprise suddenly erupted as I finished the last words “and the homes of the brave” the crowd yelled “GO Madison”. The rest of the night people came up to me saying.” I didn’t know you could do that! That was great! You’re a great singer!” The feeling of embarrassment and happiness all in one overwhelmed me. Even though I sang that night and it was me who was recognized and praised. The praise goes to GOD for he is the one who gave the gift to me
