"SINGING IN CHURCH"

      I remember when I became one of the "Dick Girls" and had to sing in front of the church. I used to love to sing with my sisters at home and in the car but not in front of other people.

      I remember feeling sick before we would sing in church. I did not exactly have the voice for it and I did not want people to hear my voice too much so I would sometimes sing real quiet or fake it. I didn't mind it so much when I knew we happened to blend pretty good in a certain song because I wouldn't be heard so much.

      I always dreaded getting up in front of people to sing. No matter how hard I tried to imagine it those people did not look like heads of cabbage.
