Future Violinist?

As always, children are amazing! Or at the very least, children always amazes me.

Here is my nephew, barely two (2) years old imitating how to play the violin. There is a story how he learned to imitate the movements of a violinist even though none in our family are musicians nor do we have an actual violin.

YouTube. That's it, that's the explanation why my nephew learned how to "play" the "violin".

It was probably that my mother or one of my siblings watching the music video of Celine Dion's To Love You More that my nephew, Lance, saw and probably liked the tune of it. I realized that children absorbs every information you threw at them like sponge on water. As my mother fondly recalls, my nephew would and still will request the music video once he sees anyone of us using the computer.

Being, so far, the only grandson of my parents - he gets what he wants, or more accurately he gets what his grandparents "thinks" he wants. It was just a matter of days that he got a plastic guitar and stick to fully imitate the violinist.

And Im gonna tell you he really put his feelings in every performance (just look the picture)!

Yes, I miss being a child, no big problems to think about, no immediate future to worry - but hey I'm already digressing.

Lance, enjoy playing your "violin", maybe it is time to learn a new piece?
