This is so cool! My friend Eva and Paul's son Joshua is in the Wichita Falls Youth Symphony Orchestra in Wichita Falls, Texas. He is one of the cellists, and the orchestra that he is a part of covered a couple of really popular songs. As if I'm not already losing, like, most of my hair... it's things like this that make me feel older. I remember Joshua as a tiny 5-year old - the son of a couple of great friends that I made in the Air Force back in the early to mid-2000's running around the house playing with his toys.

He's not 5 anymore. He's doing awesome grown-up stuff like full-blown UIL Stage Qualifier science fairs, National Junior Honors Society, track and field, a Bo Cho Dan Black belt in Taekwondo, PreAP classes, and orchestra concerts! The kid's going places, just saying. Can you put your finger on these songs? If my school's orchestra did this when I was still in high school, I would have totally put in the time to learn an instrument! I bet I'd be totally okay with playing the triangle.

I'm not entirely certain which one I like better. That one, or this one:
