This is the cutest thing I’ve ever seen! Really. It’s almost 17 minutes, but worth it! In the very beginning Lex is hidden behind a little girl in a blue shirt, but then they sit down and you can see him clearly.

This is the event that caused him so much stress in the beginning. Once he learned he would be in the orchestra, which is what he was hoping for, he relaxed and got really excited! He’s been walking around the house all week singing and practicing, using claps instead of jingle taps (the instrument he’s playing in the video).

Watch it. Watch it again. Laugh. Maybe it’s only funny to me because I know all the kids. We’ll see. Anyway, I was cranky before this opera, but left feeling really, really happy! Lex was bouncingly happy as well. He watched the video on the camera in the car, then Eve watched it once we picked her up. Both times Lex sang along the whole time. I love it! I love him!
