I Have Mad Piano Playing Skills

So guess who gets to play a piano solo in church again. Yours Truly. Yup, thanks mom love you too. Really I had no say in the matter. The conversation went something like this, but first I have to set the scene: I was sitting on the piano bench and my mom was sitting in the chair that is next to the piano. I was trying to figure out what song to play just for the heck of it.
 Mom: Hey Kelley do you want to play the piano for Brady's farewell or would you rather give a talk?
 Me:  neither, umm I cant learn a song that fast so I guess I will give a talk.
Then Brady walked by,
Brady: Eww I don't want her to talk at my farewell.
Me: Thanks Brady
It was all sarcasm.
 Mom:  are you sure I think you should play
Me: ya mom, I'm sure. There is no way that I can learn a song that fast.
 Mom: Okay then you can play for Jessi's farewell.
   Me: Mom you know how I feel about playing in public, I can barely play with you sitting here and not getting nervous, plus I don't even know what to play.
 At this time I flipped to a random song in the book and it ended up being " I Know That My Redeemer Lives" and then I started to play it for the first time ever.
 Mom: You can play this one and you will do just fine, you already practically know it.
 Me: This is the first time I have ever played it, you're crazy and I think our ward is going to be sick of me by October.
 Mom: Kelley everybody loves you.
 Me:  Whatever you say mom, so I'm not playing right?
 Then she got up and left. 
I didn't even get to pick the song. So I guess I am playing in October. It's going to be a party.
