Parental Intuition?

I just started a post about a concert my daughter was involved in today. Anyhow the point of this discussion is that although it was a music concert the children all had to illustrate the front of their songsheets on the theme of one of the songs. There were to be 2 runner ups and a winner. You know that feeling you get when your child has done something that makes you really proud, the tingling , lump in the throat and quivering lips along with eyes that are ready to spill over with tears at any second? WEll I had that the whole concert but it felt like more than just cos she was having such a great time singing as though there was more to come. Then came the news of the competition, I turned and whispered to my partner that Niamh had won. He looked at me as if I had 2 heads and asked how I knew - the reply of course was that I just did...and of course I was right! The provost presented her with a certificate and a gift bag and she had her phoo taken, my other half tried to get a pic of that but photographer was in the way I phoned my sis in law when we got home - she is the press officer with our council, it was not one of her photographers but she said she would see what she could do. A couple of hours later we dropped Gran home after going shopping and there were 2 copies of the photograph -my sis in law had dropped them off on her way home from work! Wasn't that nice! lol Niamh does love art and was in an exhibition last year but the only way I can explain that I knew she had won the competition was a psychic connection when it comes to my kids! What do you guys think - connection or just coincidence? By the way Niamhs class were the youngest of the 3 and that made her even more pleased....and her prize was a cd of traditional scottish music that she loves! Hugs xxx
