All Amazing Babies

Who doesn’t like to get on the dance floor and bust a few classic moves when their favorite song comes on? I know that is the exact reason that I like to go to parties—there’s nothing like letting loose and dancing away sometimes. It’s clear that there are a couple of others who feel the same way!

In the video below you see a little girl happily dancing away to Silento’s popular song, “Watch Me.” We don’t blame her for doing all the catchy dance moves and singing along because this tune is quite catchy! I’m guilty of trying to copy the choreographed dance in Silento’s music video as well.

You’ll notice that the girl is dancing right next to a horse; she was at the San Antonio Rose Palace that day and decided to put some talented dance moves! As she dances and bops to the music, you’ll see that the horse is compelled to start dancing as well. Don’t believe it? Then be sure to check it out for yourself! It’s quite clear that the famous song was too hard to resist, even for the horse.

The video is so funny and hard-to-believe that it has garnered 5 million views on Facebook, and that’s definitely for all the right reasons! After looking into their affinity for music, it’s safe to say that horses really enjoy songs. Studies show that music helps eliminate outside sounds for the animals and they’re distracted enough to not regard things like thunder, tractor sounds, and tools.

We also know that horses are very smart animals. They say that owners should always play music around their horse in order to keep him/her calm during times like grooming and eating. Country music helps them stay mellow and upbeat tunes will always prompt a horse to get on its feet and start dancing! This is exactly what happened in the situation below!

Do you know of other stories that have animals shaking a leg or two? Or, does your pet like to dance to the beat of his/her favorite? If so, let us know in the comments! We’d love to read your stories.

Sometimes I wonder what I was doing when I was 4-years-old. I mean I had just started school, probably discovered some new shows I enjoyed watching during snack time and was just learning how to tie my laces. I was also working on being more confident as a child because I had a hard time having conversations with my teacher and other students in the classroom.

Every child has his/her own timeline. There are some children who are talkative and questioning everything and just confident in everything that they do — it comes to them naturally from a young age. So, unlike me, there were a lot of other 4-year-olds who loved attention, were entirely composed in front of big crowds, and had incredible talent.

Valor Yost is a kid with a great voice and the guts to take center stage to perform a Johnny Cash classic that everyone loves; he also happens to be the youngest Johnny Cash impersonator, and he seems to have a good handle of the music! You don’t see someone so small performing a Johnny song. And, even if you had someone tell you this, you wouldn’t expect anything of professional caliber from the child. Right? Nope, that’s adding too much pressure on the poor little thing!

But, after watching this footage, your mindset may change and you may feel it appropriate to expect something like this from other kids, too. The video opens up with the little boy standing in front a mic, with guitar in hand. He just finished telling the host of the night that he’s going be serenading the audience with Johnny’s famous song, “Ring of Fire.”

As he starts his performance, you can almost immediately hear the crowd’s amused reaction. By the sounds of it, Valor knows how to put on a performance. He stands in front of his audience with great confidence and gives them a couple of moments to chuckle in between, too! I always say that the person who can take the stage and engage the audience, regardless of what his/her routine is, is the true performer! Valor proved it with this one, today.

Which one of Johnny Cash’s songs is your favorite? Let us know in the comments!

In the meantime, watch Valor set the stage on fire with his performance, below.

Ladies and gentlemen, wedding season is now upon us. It’s time to take out your best dresses, your favorite hats, and clutch purses, and find those comfortable heels that’ll make life so much easier when you’re walking around enjoying a wedding reception. Yes, it’s that time of year, and what fun!

We classify these ceremonies as “fun” but, it’s not a wedding unless you’ve laughed and cried. Your mascara has to run or your face has to hurt from laughing or someone has to fall over to make the day complete and seal it into everyone’s memory. I mean, you’ve got to have something else to look back on besides the bride and groom! This is an overly emotional day (in a good way!) that’s guaranteed to include all the feelings!

The ceremony that we’re sharing with you today is exactly that. The video opens to music that is slow and peaceful and played beautifully on the piano as both the flower girl and the ring boy carefully make their way down – and this is just the beginning.

Being a flower girl has to be hard work. Carrying the basket, looking pretty, getting all the attention second to the bride – but somebody’s gotta do it! This little girl is clearly giving it all she’s got because the ring bearer is leading her by the elbow so as not to lose her. As they’re walking down the aisle, she just about makes it to the bottom of the steps – and then sits down! This little cutie just needs a break from such an exhausting day!

She seems to have lost her way, fallen and can’t get back up, so a marine has to scoop her up and help her get back on her way, which she does, for a moment. But then sits back down again, and stays put! It’s quite graceful and adorable, and everyone laughs because it’s too sweet to pass up! This is such a funny little moment no one will forget!

Thank goodness for things like smartphones and tablets because that’s exactly how memories are made these days. Something memorable happens while you’re at a wedding, and you instantly take your phone out and record it — a digital memory made!

What are some of the funny stories you recall from weddings you’ve attended? We’d love to read about them in the comments below!

In the meantime, watch the cutest moment of this particular wedding in the video below!

I’ve always heard about singing to your plants, and how good it is for them. When you sing with love, they grow tall and happy. When you curse at them, they turn frail and die. I had a friend who did this for his outdoor plants, every day, and they grew sky high. Happy, strong, healthy and blossomed for weeks. Don’t believe me? Even maize seedlings have been shown to turn in different directions based on exposure to specific frequencies. It appears to me that all living things are sensitive to sound.

So have you ever heard of playing classical music for farm animals? Makes sense that they would enjoy it but I’ve never heard of it or seen it until now – and it’s downright adorable.

A group of musical teens from Cleveland, Ohio, USA, packed up their instruments – a guitar, a violin, an oboe – and hit up a local cow farm. “We’re gonna try to play for some animals, make them happy,” says one of the teens. “I’ve never done this before. I play for my dog; she loves it.” I think that’s a pretty good indication of what’s to come!

They all set up their stands, and take out their sheet music. Their instruments are tuned and ready to go. The first teen takes out her violin and starts to play simple chords, when all of a sudden, the first cow makes her move. She edges closer to the pretty sounds she hears, and one of the teens says, “She’s one of the shyer ones,” as she trots over with her ears perking up.

The violinist delves a little deeper into song, playing something a little more structured, and the cow is right up to the fence, lifting her head looking longingly towards the music! Not only does she hear the music – that’s a given – but it seems like she sincerely appreciates and enjoys it!

A fun little sprightly ditty is played on the oboe, and as if on cue, another cow shows up! And another! Then the teens join forces, their instruments playing together in a beautiful song and the cows are loving it – baby cow too! It’s an adorable little cow concert, and so lovely to see how much they enjoy classical music – it’s good for humans, plants and animals too!

I have to admit that like most people, there are certain things I take for granted. While I do struggle with some health problems due to chronic illness, I can still see, hear, walk, and talk. For myself, it’s difficult to imagine what life would be like if one of those things was suddenly taken away from me.

But, there are people that live without these things all the time. Fortunately, advances in technology have allowed some of those folks to gain back something that they thought was lost forever. Five-year-old Judah Bittner wasn’t able to speak because of his paralyzed larynx, but a device called the electrolarynx changed everything for this little boy.

Judah and his sister, Annikah, were born 24 weeks early and each weighed just over a pound at birth. Doctors didn’t expect them to live at all, but the infants proved to be fighters and survived despite the odds.

Like many preemies, Judah suffers from many health problems. In 2015 he was hospitalized for several months. Struggling to stay alive, the toddler was given a tracheotomy tube to help him breathe. Unfortunately, the tube that saved his life also damaged Judah’s vocal cords, leaving them paralyzed. Since then, he hasn’t been able to use his voice.

Jessica and Mike Bittner adopted Judah and his sister and are determined to help all of their adopted children thrive as much as they can. At five-years-old, Judah was introduced to the electrolarynx device which allowed him to speak for the first time.

Though he was initially hesitant at finally hearing his own voice, the smile on his face revealed his true happiness. His huge smile lit up the entire room and the video of the event has since gone viral.

His mom shared Judah’s progress with the new device on social media:

“Judah bug is slowly getting used to using his ‘voice box’ or ‘buzzer’! His kindergarten classmates encourage him to use it —which helps! We are still looking to have Judah go through surgeries that would reconstruct his airway. Once his airway is stable and can support his breathing we may be able to remove the trach! And then, finally, we can have the necessary procedures done to try to fix his vocal cord paralysis. It’s a long journey! But he’s a champion! Most electrolarynx users are older than Judah bug. He’s a unique case!”

It’s easy to get a little down when it rains and pass it off as unenjoyable. You get wet and cold and it can ruin plans if you’re outdoors. There goes the picnic you organized. And that poolside BBQ? Raincheck! Some people get bummed out when they see grey skies headed over, thinking about all the things they can’t do and how it imposes on their plans. Nature is nature, and you can’t mess with the weather.

Then other people might be a little disappointed that their beach day got rained out, but decide, “C’est la vie!” and roll with the punches otherwise.

This is the attitude that makes the rain enjoyable! And if not enjoyable, then at least manageable. Even though this little girl is singing “Rain, rain, go away. Come again another day..!” she’s got the right approach. While mom and daughter were outside on a humid day, as with most really humid days, the once bright blue sky darkened, signaling rain is on the way. Instead of running indoors to seek shelter, these two stayed outside to enjoy the cool refreshing downfall.

Mom was able to capture her daughter’s unbridled delight. At first, she’s holding her daughter’s hand as the little girl adorably sings the nursery rhyme into the camera. She’s got her arm extended trying to catch raindrops when she looks over towards the puddle and pauses for a second. That’s when she gets the idea to have a little fun!

And seriously, how fun is it to jump in puddles? This little girl knows exactly how much fun it is because once she lays eyes on the rain falling and collecting right beside her, she lets go of mom’s hand and dances over to splish-splash in the rain. Now she’s jumping up and down, her curls flopping along with her. And she’s still singing!

She’s hopping around and smiling and singing her little song, and making the most of the weather’s change of plans. This act is her rain dance, and it’s just so cute. She carries on for a while too, caught up in her own world, just her and the rain and the puddle.

Click below to watch this child thoroughly enjoy the rainfall. She’s got the right idea, always looking for a rain cloud’s silver lining and not letting a little bit of water get you down for the rest of the day.

It’s important to teach your kids how to think outside of the box. By introducing new ways of looking at things, you create connections which foster creativity and free-thinking. It’s a way to find the path of least resistance and to find loopholes to understand better. It’s the learned ability to see things differently, to generates tolerance and to see the bigger picture in an ever-changing world that is constantly expanding. It’s a way to approach learning, understanding and thinking on the spot.

But before you get too far, there are a couple of things you have to know first, like counting to 5. While this little girl sure can think outside of the box, once she nails her numbers, then she can be the wildly imaginative, sassy human she is! After all, you have to know the rules like a pro before you can break the rules like an artist.

This is a hilarious video of a wee thing showing dad she can count. They’re walking through a parking lot on a sunny day, discussing life while mom’s got the camera out. The girl and dad are engrossed in a heated debate on the controversial subject of counting. She’s got it all sorted out, adamant that she knows what she’s doing, except she’s just missing one thing – the number four. While dad, a teacher, tries to tell her she’s doing it wrong, she stands her ground. “No, it’s 1..2…3…5!” she claims, holding all her fingers up.

“NO,” he retorts. “It’s 1…2…3…FOUUUURRRR…5…” But, she doesn’t give up. She looks straight at him and stomps her little foot with her arms waving and her two tiny buns on the top of her head bobbing around. Mom can’t keep a straight face and is trying to muffle her giggles. She even chimes in and says, “Elia, it’s 1…2…3…FOUUUURRRR…5…” to which the steadfast toddler says, “No mommy. It’s 1…2…3…5!” Both parents, in unison, try to tell her otherwise. She is one defiant cutie stuck in her ways!

It’s only at the end, Elia starts to maybe consider that the two big important humans in her life could be right – but only for a second before she reverts to her old way of thinking. “It’s 1…2…3…5 mommy…” until she tries only counting to 4 and then gets it again. Mom and dad both start to cheer!

I’ve always believed it’s the little things that count. Just give a child a gift wrapped in fancy wrapping paper and bows, and watch how he or she will give more attention to the ripped paper than the gift itself! It’s those small defining moments in time that stick to memory, leaving an everlasting impression. Sometimes those moments are nothing more than a minute or two spent doing something silly or daring with someone you love, or stumbling upon something that momentarily moves you, and yet they stick around forever! You may not remember the exact words someone said, but you’ll always remember the way they made you feel.

It’s beautiful moments like this that forge a bond, and add love and light to a child’s memory bank when they’re all grown up. These become some of the fondest memories for both parent and child. Not to mention how much it makes mom swoon when she gets to walk in on this!!

Mom Laura Caperton Richardson made sure she had her camera ready when she opened the door to the bathroom and saw this scene unfold. Dad’s got their sweet little daughter sitting on the bathroom sink in front of the mirror. He’s holding her hands while standing behind her. She looks all washed up and ready for bed, wearing quite possibly the cutest onesie I’ve ever seen in my life (now, if only it came in my size…), and the two start their show.

Dad cues his daughter in with the beginning of The Temptations’ “My Girl” by singing, “I got sunshine.” She jumps right in, mirroring what daddy’s singing. He goes on to start the lyric, and she finishes it off with her tiny, little squeaky voice! But the girl knows it! He starts, “I got sunshine…..” and then she comes in, “…on a cloudy day….”

Then it’s mostly just her, singing along and totally owning the rest of the song as she whips through the lyrics; she even pulls off a few dance moves thanks to dad! They are definitely a dynamic duo. This is such a sweet moment for her to look back on, and it just goes to show how close they are as a family. She is daddy’s little girl and always will be.

From the moment I open my eyes in the morning, it’s go time. I’m pretty good at resisting the urge to hit snooze, mostly because before turning off the lights the night before, I calculate down to the last possible minute the time I have to sleep in. I also try to welcome the new day with a positive attitude. Sure, coffee helps. A lot. But it’s also about having a nice wake-up call or alarm. Chances are, if you’ve woken up to your favorite piece of music, you’ll start your day off far better than if you were to snap your eyes open to the sound of a drilling fire alarm!

This video so perfectly shows how it should feel to wake up every morning. Ok, at least every Friday morning! This little girl is beyond adorable, and she’s definitely doing something right!

Mom is in the middle row of the family van while her three girls ages, 3, 2,1 are strapped into their kid seats in the back. The littlest one in the far left corner is fast asleep while her two older sisters are awake and eager for mom to play music. The eldest, to the front and right, says, “Turn it up…” The two are ready to dance in their seats. They’re jittery and excited and just want to hear their favorite song to make their day!

Seconds later, the famous instrumental theme from Beverly Hills Cop comes on, and the two little girls go bonkers! They are over the top adorable dancing in their seats with the biggest smiles across their faces! The music is loud and the girls are getting their groove on, wiggling from side to side. And yet their sister is gone to the world, dreaming little girl dreams somewhere far away.

Or is she? It’s not seconds into the music and this little angel opens her eyes, immediately awake and dancing! This rock star in the making literally wakes up dancing to the music, not wasting a moment before joining her sisters. She’s shaking her legs and moving her body and head back and forth to the rhythm of the song. It’s cuteness overload. Mom lets out a huge giggle while the baby of the bunch shows just as much excitement and joy dancing in her seat as the other two. She’s no party pooper, that’s for sure!

Who doesn’t enjoy a good tune? Bob Marley once captured the essence of music’s impact beautifully: “When it hits you, you feel no pain.”
Indeed, music has a timeless charm, soothing souls of all ages. Many of us have a list of favorite songs and bands, yet sometimes, the most touching melodies are those sung by the people closest to our hearts.

This sentiment rings true in a heartwarming tale that has captured the hearts of many online.

The story revolves around two sisters, nine-year-old Allie and her seven-week-old baby sister, Ashlyn.

To provide solace, Allie takes it upon herself to sing to Ashlyn, hoping to ease her into slumber.
The response from Ashlyn is nothing short of adorable. As she hears her sister’s voice, a small smile breaks across her face.

Allie chooses “Circle of Life” from the Lion King as her lullaby, a choice that seems all the more fitting as we see her embody the role of a protective older sister.

The moment Ashlyn smiles, Allie is visibly moved, her emotions bubbling to the surface with a tender “aww” before she has to look away.

Overwhelmed by the moment, Allie quickly finds herself in tears.
Off-camera, her parents inquire about the sudden outburst.

“Is it because you love her so much?” her mother gently probes.

The story of Allie and Ashlyn strikes a chord with audiences.
The innocence and purity of their interaction remind us of the universal appeal of music, especially when it’s offered by someone we love and who loves us in return.

This video captures a truly special moment between the sisters, showcasing the power of music to connect and comfort.

Fortunately, the entire heartwarming episode was caught on video by their mother, allowing us to witness this beautiful exchange.

If this story touched your heart, you’re encouraged to share it with your loved ones.

Celebrate Allie’s beautiful voice and the unforgettable moment it created for her and Ashlyn.

It’s a testament to the love and joy that can be shared through the simple act of singing.

This narrative not only showcases the bond between siblings but also highlights how music can be a source of comfort and joy, transcending age and language.

It’s a beautiful reminder of the power of love, music, and family, captured in a moment that will be cherished forever.
