As a parent, there’s nothing in the world like seeing your baby smile at you. Nothing.
The world melts away from you at that moment. There’s only that face and that radiant, usually toothless, grin. You’ll do anything to see that smile. Especially since a smiling baby is not a crying one!
This song is a sweet one – “You Are So Beautiful” – but seconds into his rendition, he’s reduced to the background as his daughter beams, enthralled at this man singing to her.
How can you tell? She doesn’t even make a sound – a laugh, cry or a coo. Instead, her face spreads into the widest smile possible.
This video is sure to make every father reminisce about their time with their daughters… or think about impending births. It’s a sweet one.
In case you haven’t had your daily dose of cuteness, this little man is here to make your day. From his prime spot in his car seat, Demetrius shares with us his own, soulful version of “I’m Blessed”. I have to face it, even as a baby, his little voice is much better than my own. It’s not just his voice that’s impressive, however, it’s his passion for the music. It’s safe to assume that little Demetrius may not fully understand the meaning behind the words he’s belting out, but the spirit is there. He’s well on his way to understanding exactly why he is so blessed and having a deep appreciation for life and all that it has to offer.
Lydia Majette, Demetrius’ grandmother is the person recording the video, as well as the little one’s duet partner. Her influence has given this little boy an appreciation for gospel music and it’s clear that she has a passion for it as well. The beautiful music, as well as her own talent, has rubbed off on her grandson in the best way. It seems that the entire family has a passion for singing and gospel music. Lydia has three other grandchildren that also enjoy singing along. She just happened to film Demetrius on this particular day.
For any one of us, it’s easy to get caught up in our daily lives and worries. As adults, we carry a lot of pressure and expectations around with us. We have jobs, families, financial struggles, and even health issues to deal with. It’s easy to become overwhelmed and forgot all of the wonderful blessings we do have. Today, let little Demetrius, young and free of the difficulties of adulthood, remind us in his wonderful way that each of us is truly blessed.
“Jade De Rijcke, a 14-year-old singer, wowed the judges on ‘The Voice Kids Belgium’ before going on to win the entire 2018 competition.
This was an impressive win for both De Rijcke and her coach, Gers Pardoel. 2018 was Pardoel’s first year as a coach. Relying on De Rijcke and his other singers, Pardoel beat out several more experienced coaches and sent his protege on to stardom.
After her win, De Rijcke went on to release her first single in April 2019. The single was called Straw House and was about a close relationship. Straw House was unique because it was De Riecke’s first original song. She was used to covering songs. She may have written original songs before, but this was her first time recording one.
What many viewers may not know is that 2018 was not De Rijcke’s first appearance on ‘The Voice Kids.’ She tried out in 2017 and did not make it past the blind auditions. De Rijcke later said her nerves got to her, and that she was disappointed because her audition did not even make it onto television.
But De Rijcke did not let that experience get her down, instead of going back to her training and making another try which succeeded beyond her wildest hopes. Sometimes a failure is what it takes to make a performer, or anyone for that matter, put in the hard work necessary for success at any chosen endeavor.
The ‘Road to’ videos show the performances of one contestant throughout their time on the show. It is a good retrospective, and a way to get all a performer’s songs into one document. For the blind audition, De Rijcke chose to sing ‘Homesick’ by Dua Lipa.
‘Homesick’ is a slow, plaintive, piano-driven ballad about a woman who is separated from her lover and longs to get back to him, through harsh obstacles and a feeling of loneliness. Just as De Rijcke kept steadily moving towards her goal, of winning the competition, the woman in this song will not give up her quest to find her lover.
For the semi-final, De Rijcke chose ‘Sober,’ by the American pop singer Demi Lovato. This is a rather sad song about Lovato’s troubles with alcohol. She outlines some of the behavior she regrets, as well as expressing fear of being unable to quit drinking. Singing a song does not mean one is living the song, but still, this is a bold choice for someone as young as De Rijcke. She tackled it with her usual cool and calm.
De Rijcke’s last song on the show was ‘Grand Piano,’ by the American Nicki Minaj. This is the song of a woman questioning her lover, whether he has been sincere or faithful in the relationship. The singer also spends a lot of time examining her, whether or not she has made stupid decisions. It seems troublesome relationships are one of De Rijcke’s favorite topics.
Despite the angst and sadness in any of her song choices, Jade De Rijcke has triumphed over her obstacles, winning a competition that, at one time, it seemed she could never win. This is an inspirational story, and watching the video helps show what a champion in the making looks like.”
In the tapestry of family life, few moments are as precious as the introduction of a new sibling. The anticipation, the excitement, and the curiosity all blend into a beautiful tapestry of emotions. And in one heartwarming moment, we were fortunate to witness an enchanting encounter between a 3-year-old and her newborn sister as they embarked on a new chapter of their lives together.
The scene was set as the family returned home from the hospital, their newborn bundle of joy cradled in her mother’s arms. Waiting eagerly was the 3-year-old big sister, her eyes sparkling with a mix of wonder and delight. It was clear that she had been eagerly awaiting this moment, and she was ready to take on her new role.
As the front door opened, the little girl rushed forward, her tiny feet pattering with excitement. Her parents gently placed the newborn into her arms, and the look of sheer awe and tenderness on her face was nothing short of magical. It was a moment of pure sibling connection, a bond that would shape their relationship for years to come.
The 3-year-old’s eyes never left her baby sister as she softly whispered words of love and welcome. Her gestures were filled with care and affection as she gently touched the baby’s tiny hands and marveled at her delicate features. In that fleeting moment, the love between these two sisters blossomed.
Cameras captured this touching encounter, and it quickly became a cherished family keepsake. The video, now shared with the world, has touched the hearts of many, reminding us all of the pure and unfiltered love that children bring into our lives.
This heartwarming moment serves as a testament to the power of family bonds, the beauty of sibling relationships, and the remarkable capacity of children to embrace new responsibilities and opportunities for love. As these two sisters embark on their journey together, they have already given us a glimpse of the incredible love and connection that will shape their lives.
Omg! Does anyone else just think that little boy will grow up to be the cutest kid in the world?! Haha I love Luke Bryan, but after this I love his whole family! Go country music and country families!
Near the end of the song, he just stops, looks at the cap on the ground and then out at the audience, like he’s just seeing them for the first time!! ‘Where did all those people suddenly come from?!’ So cute! 🙂
We have seen this video soooo many times, (my little girl says she’s gonna dance with Bo-Bo) but I still love it!!!
As someone fortunate enough to grow up in a loving family, with a mother and father who were present throughout the entirety of my childhood and a stable home where I knew I was safe and loved, I can only imagine how difficult it is not have those things.
Of course, there are thousands of less fortunate children over the world, those who for one reason or another, don’t have their natural birth parents to look after them. Some find themselves living with relatives, but others find themselves hoping to be adopted into a family to call their own.
Siblings William (11), Marshall (10), and Aiden (10), know this latter feeling only too well. The three brothers are reportedly desperate to find a home that will take all of them in together.
Twins Marshall and Aiden, and their older brother, Bobby, go by the nicknames Curly, Larry, and Moe. According to Partnerships for Children, they play as only brothers can, and they most enjoy sharing things together.
Sadly, the boys are looking for their forever home, and don’t want to be separated in the process.
To that end, their searching for the right family to take them in, stating simply “we want a family!”.
As per Partnerships for Children, Bobby can be quieter than his younger brothers, and strives to please others. His interests include swimming and martial arts, while he also enjoys playing Minecraft and doing puzzles.
Aiden, meanwhile, is described as a “leader of sorts”, and is said to love being outside and learning new things. His twin, Marshall, is a fun-loving boy with a creative imagination who enjoys spending time with his two brothers.
Partnerships for Children say the boys will “best benefit from a two-parent home with a mom and a dad and no other children. Their forever family will be dedicated to the boys and will stress the importance of the sibling relationship.”
Easton Shane is getting tons of attention on the internet for a heartwarming song called ‘This Uniform’s for You,’ which he dedicated to his dad who served in the military.
At just 14 years old, Easton already recognizes the sacrifice his father has made for his country and for his family, and his song shows how grown up he really is.
Easton was previously known for a performance of Hallelujah that he did with One Voice Children’s Choir that went viral on the internet.
“Whenever I ask my Dad why he serves in the military his response has always been, “I Wear This Uniform for You.”…He would remind me that wearing the uniform meant to protect and take care of the ones we love and to act honorably,” Easton wrote about the song on Youtube.
Easton is developing quite a following online with a few thousand followers across Youtube, Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.
This song has definitely helped boost his online presence because of the way it touches the hearts of so many people who have dads in the military.
At the end of the song, Easton wrote a dedication to his dad that says, “Please take a moment to thank those who serve our country and honor those who have paid the ultimate sacrifice.”

Watch best kid singer Paula Jiven sings Billy Jean by Michael Jackson on Sweden’s Got Talent 2018! What did you think of her golden buzzer audition performance?? Let us know in the comments below…
This young lady took this song and made it her own. This is hard to do once you have heard a song one way. She played her own music. Her notes were perfect and crystal clear. Michael Jackson songs are very hard to imitate. But she nailed it. Definitely worth a golden buzzer. Way to go Paula. Great job. Oh and incorporating Michael name at the end with a little twist. Omg. Pure genius. I wouldn’t be surprised if she wins this one. People that understand
The Voice Kids is known for bringing out the most surprising talents from such young singers. The contestants often make us hear classic songs in a new light.
One such star of the German version of the show has been the 11-year-old Georgia. Right from her first audition, she astounded the judges.
The song she sang for her blind audition was ‘House of the Rising Sun’ by The Animals. The audience was immediately stunned by her voice. It sounds so smooth and powerful.
The judges also reacted with audible surprise. It only took 20 seconds before a judge decided to tap the button to turn around and face this incredible girl.
Once Georgia hits a rather powerful note, another judge hits the button to face her. She hasn’t even gotten to the best part yet.
She then gets to the louder part of the song, where the band kicks in, and her voice is beautiful. It’s bold enough that the two remaining judges also tap their buttons.
Georgia continues singing to a captive audience that cheers for her impressive performance. Her family watches from behind the stage in tears at how well she has done.
Georgia’s voice continues to impress as she goes louder and longer. The judges are getting into it, clapping and cheering her through.
For her next performance, Georgia lends her voice to ‘Can’t Help But Falling In Love’ by Elvis Presley. Once more, Georgia rocks the stage with her immaculate voice.
The heartfelt song comes alive with her beautiful ability to bring about the best in music. She’s aided by appearing in a gorgeous white dress amid a set with decadent outfits. The audience erupts just as much as in her first performance.
For her next song, Georgia sings something more upbeat. She brings her strong vocals to ‘ABC’ by the Jackson 5. It is here where Georgia shows off just how well she can sing with a group.
Georgia sings among the judges and another singer with a commanding performance. The audience gets into it. Check out how much fun is being had on stage when the camera gets close.
The video closes with Georgia winning Season 10 after being chosen by the judges. It’s the start of what could be a fantastic career in music for young Georgia.
