This is my kind of homework.
I had to bribe him to sing for the camera and there was a brief interruption when he forgot his place. It was worth the pause, and the cookie. He sang for me when he got home from school. He shared a Spanish song that he is singing for the school winter concert and I was literally knocked over by his voice. I know he’s musically inclined, but I always figured he’d rock a guitar or bang a drum. Lead vocalist was The Girl’s job. I might have missed the mark on that one. You be the judge-Paula, not Simon. (Oh and try to ignore The Baby stealing someone’s snack at the beginning. The screeching is short lived-promise.)

Wow you are right, lead vocalist he may be some day. He can sing! He warmed right up to the camera and I love F’s commentary throughout the song. Maybe they can become a duo….:)

Lead vocalist it is!! And do we have a little "Rachel" in the making here – not real sure how to deal with her role as backup singer?:) Wish I could see the real concert in person.
