Last month,the local community invited kids to sing for the elderly at the nursing home.Grandma asked if I could come and sing the song that she taught me when I was a little girl. I didn’t want to let her down,but singing in public really troubled me a lot.

“I can’t do it I’m too shy.”I told my worry to my friends Molly and Emily

“You’re not alone,”said Molly.“I feel nervous about singing in public too.”

“Don’t worry! I have an idea!”said Emily.“I mean, I always feel braver with  friends. How about the three of us sing together? ”

After talking about it for a while,we agreed happily.Over the next few days,we practiced the song so many times that we could not get it out of our heads.

Finally,the big day came. I wasn’t the only one who was nervous. Molly’s legs were shaking. Emily’s hands were wet,but she still encouraged us,“We can become braver and stronger when we are together.”

Emily was right. As soon as we started singing,our nervousness went away. The pretty and relaxing song just seemed to sing itself. The hall was filled with cheers. Some of the elderly even joined us. With more people singing together, we sang more confidently. When we finished singing, Grandma came onto the stage and gave us all a warm group hug.
