Why I never perform for my parents.

This week I wanted to listen to the album I recorded in college and remembered that I gave a copy to my family.
I looked for it amongst my brother's CDs. Then in my parents' collection... And nothing. I asked my brother where could it be, and told me that maybe it was in my dad's office. Last year we had a fight because my brother used to take CDs (including mine) to the office and leave them there. They had to move office twice in the last year, so I went there today hoping to find my album. I didn't. Asked my dad and said "There's lots of CDs over there. Have a look!". Don't wanna sound 'diva-ish' but shouldn't he be keeping it in a safe, special place as it is his daughter's work?
On my birthday, my friends asked me to sing for them, and I did. My cousin was very impressed and later in the week told me that I was fantastic and that he wanted to help me get some music work in Colombia. In that moment, my mother enters the conversation and my cousin asks her if she knew I was that good (he he). She answered "Yes". And continued " I just never say it. It's just the way I am. I'm different from other (bragging) parents". I'm absolutely sure she's convinced that's the right way to act when you are proud of your kids. God doesn't like people that brag. But I'm her daughter. I kind of need her to brag a little bit. I've given her plenty of reasons!!
So, that's why it's almost physically impossible for me to perform in front of my parents. All the photos with famous people, albums recorded, TV shows, videos, etc., are just anecdotes for them. They still don't realise THAT'S my job!! And that's why I'm forgetting it too, now.
I love my parents, I do. They just can't be part of my music life.
