Two musically gifted teenagers put on a stunning street performance of a beloved hit from the 1960s, “Stand by Me.”

Life is full of unexpected occurrences, many of which can cause one to stumble and fall. These situations are painful, hurt and ones that people would rather avoid altogether. While it may not be possible to circumvent those instances, a trusted ally or friend can make these times much more bearable.

Teenage musician Oscar Stembridge joins violinist Karolina Protsenko for a beautiful cover of a tune about enduring those tough and trying times with the help of friends and loved ones, “Stand by Me.”

Oscar plays the guitar and sings the lyrics of the beloved classic as Karolina plays her violin and dances about the busy street, entertaining their sizable crowd.

The two talented musicians take turns showing off their immeasurable skills. The song begins with Oscar belting out the lyrics to the first verse while Karolina takes over “singing” duties for the second one. As she plays, you can hear the memorable lyrics in your head.

“So darlin’, darlin’ stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Oh, stand
Stand by me, stand by me”

During their inspired street performance, several people stop and take in the beautiful sounds being created by the two young musicians. The video captures several audience members filming Oscar and Karolina’s outstanding rendition. Near the clip’s conclusion, one young woman even dances around to the sweet sounds.

Karolina Protsenko is a wunderkind on the violin. Videos of the young woman strumming expertly on the stringed instrument have received millions of views, earning her legions of subscribers on her YouTube channel.

In the clip, Oscar shows that he has been abundantly blessed with a massive amount of musical ability as well.

Colossians 3:16 “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.”

Church protocols and ceremonies can be confusing for us adults, so it’s no wonder a little girl might confuse a priest’s raised hand during a blessing for a high-five! This pint-sized princess certainly did. And, as funny as that is, it’s the reaction of the priest that is really sweet!

This video appears to have been taken in a European country. The church is more ornate and grand than those we typically see in the states, and the officiant is speaking in another language. But, there is no mistaking what is happening.

Little Miss, dressed in her frilly white dress, has come forward with her godmother, who is also dressed up for the occasion. She is to be “presented” to the church. The presentation is not a sacrament in the Catholic church; it’s more of a ritual or custom. It may or may not be done in conjunction with baptism, and it can be done at a variety of ages. Some sources say that children are often either 40 days old or 3 years old. In any case, this is an opportunity for the child to receive a blessing of protection, which is a pretty serious thing! Except, sometimes kids do the darndest things!

After giving the sign of the cross, the priest offers this little cherub a blessing, but she thinks it is a signal that he wants to give her a high-five. Apparently, high-fives are universally recognized and understood! She reaches up with her tiny hand and gives the priest a hearty tap in return!

Her godmother puts her free hand over the little girl’s arm and shakes her head a bit in embarrassment, but the sprite seems unmoved. The priest, however, is unable to hide his amusement. He starts chuckling, and puts a hand over his mouth to hide his laughter. He’s unable to squelch his giggles, which may be the coolest part of the video! He doesn’t take himself too seriously, and, instead, he shows kindness in that moment!

The video is super short, but it does so much. We see the innocence of a child, the correction of a loving role model, and the grace of a man of God—connection, understanding, humor, and love!

Jesus said, ‘Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.’ Matthew 19:14

It’s an adorable moment captured on camera when this little brother joins his sister in a beautiful rendition of ‘I’ll Fly Away.’ This iconic hymn reminds us all that there is hope in the arms of the Lord.

“Some bright morning when this life is over I’ll fly away
To that home on God’s celestial shore
I’ll fly away I’ll fly away, oh glory I’ll fly away in the morning
When I die, Hallelujah by and by I’ll fly away”

‘I’ll Fly Away’ was written in 1929 by Albert E. Brumley. It was published in 1932 and became a hymn frequently performed in church services all over the world. In fact, the song has even been called one of the most recorded gospel songs of all time with notable covers from Alison Krauss and Alan Jackson. Albert was picking cotton on his family farm when the words to the classic hymn came into his mind. From that moment, it took Albert three more years to actually complete the iconic song.

Today, young Cirsten is lending her voice to this popular hymn and it is absolutely incredible. It is such a blessing to see the younger generation praise our Lord and this clip gives us two times the worship. Just watch as Cirsten’s younger brother joins in for this country rendition of ‘I’ll Fly Away.’

There is no doubt that this adorable duo is giving all the glory to God with this performance. Who else had their hands in the arm?

Capturing the sweet essence of new experiences, this heartwarming moment unfolds as a little baby girl embarks on her maiden voyage into the world of bananas. With wide eyes and eager anticipation, she reaches out to grasp the yellow fruit, her tiny fingers exploring its texture. As the first taste touches her lips, her expression transforms into a delightful blend of surprise and delight. A symphony of expressions dances across her face — from curiosity to joy — as she discovers the unique flavor. Each bite becomes a playful exploration, her giggles echoing the sheer joy of discovery. In this tender moment, innocence meets adventure, and the simple act of trying a banana becomes a memory cherished for a lifetime.

In a moment of pure innocence and curiosity, our little angel embarked on her first culinary adventure – tasting a banana. With wide eyes sparkling with wonder, she gingerly accepted the offered slice, her tiny fingers exploring its texture. As she brought it to her mouth, her face a canvas of anticipation, the room held its breath.

Then, in a delightful twist of fate, her taste buds met the sweetness of the fruit. Her reaction was priceless – a mixture of surprise, joy, and sheer delight. Her eyes lit up like the morning sun, and her mouth formed a perfect “O” of astonishment. A symphony of giggles filled the air as she savored this new sensation, her chubby cheeks dimpling with every grin.

With each bite, she discovered a world of flavor, each more delightful than the last. The banana became her newfound treasure, a source of endless fascination and joy. And as she reached for another piece, we couldn’t help but share in her delight, knowing that this was just the beginning of her culinary journey – one filled with discovery, wonder, and endless love.

In this video clip, a precious little girl is processing her anxieties. This nervous cheerleader finds her courage after the crowd cheers her on.

Normally a cheerleader is focused on lifting the spirits of others, however, in this video, a crowd encourages her. As the clip starts, a mom shares that her daughter who is only 6 years old is having her first cheerleading competition. The little girl who is standing front and center wipes away tears on her uniform. The mother tells her, “let’s go!” and that she was going to be fine. She cheered, “Let’s go, Anna!”

Suddenly, people all in the crowds began to clap and cheer for her. Anna begins to take a few deep breaths and pulls herself together. The young girl begins to smile and begins her cheer. She is the team captain and she grew in confidence ready to start!

So many times in our own lives, we too can feel like this little girl. We can be overwhelmed by emotions and in need of support to keep pressing on. Just like the crowd cheered for Anna, the Lord and His angels are motivating us. Whatever we feel discouraged or anxious about, this video reminds us that we are not alone. In fact, Hebrews tells us that we are surrounded by a cloud of witnesses who are cheering us on right now. Be encouraged today.

In kids’ eyes, their parents are usually “beautiful” and “handsome.” They spend their first several years in hero-worship mode. Parents relish their children’s unconditional love and accept all compliments with grace. Most families fit within these norms, but not all. When Taylor Lanahan’s family was at a restaurant, Dad showed a picture to their daughter and asked who it was. The answer that it was a mom pic was not what either parent expected.

When shown the image, the daughter very clearly answered, “Mommy,” and her dad looked shocked. He asked again; she pointed to the image on his phone, looked at her mom, and said again, “It’s you, Mommy.” After that, her dad turned the “mom pic” image to appear on the video Taylor was recording.

The image was hilarious. It showed a furry, blue-tinged monster with huge eyes and sharp, crooked teeth. It looked nothing like the young girl’s mom.

As you can see, the daughter is much older now, but her mom is still beautiful. There is not one single hint of a furry blue momster. The daughter answered so matter-of-factly. She seemed to believe that pic was her mom.

It is possible that Taylor was wearing a costume; the Momster is her, and the daughter knew this. It is also possible that the child was being silly, but she seemed so sure of herself with no underlying giggles.

We won’t speculate on the daughter’s reasoning for pointing out the mom’s pic like that. We all agree with the parents that this is a hilarious clip. The daughter is either very confused or the best “straight man” in the business.

Please share if you did not expect the momster.

Mason is a self-proclaimed “Super Dad” who seems to spend his entire life in a play grocery store. Of course, after meeting the employees at his local market, no one could blame him. The young cashier is incredibly endearing, but the manager is all business. The two younglings manage a booming corner store with a lot of repeat business.

The young boy stands ready for each customer, wearing an apron and presenting professionally. He dutifully rings up each item for his customer and then (not so) carefully places the item in a bag. Engaging in small talk and making suggestive sales are part of the overall charm. However, when an expired coupon is presented, all bets are off.

Left image shows a tiny cashier ringing up items in a play grocery store. Right image shows the cashier skillfully explaining to his customer that the coupon he presented is expired.
Not willing to accept that he had a bad coupon, Mason demanded to speak with the manager. That was a wrong choice in this play grocery store. The young cashier summoned the manager using the public address system. She was in no mood to tangle as she came around the corner from her office. Don’t let that adorable smile fool you!

She might have been wearing her customer service smile, but the video cut out after she arrived. We’re not picturing a happy ending for that play grocery store customer. All kidding aside, these kids and their father are having a blast with this play grocery store. They have various items on the shelves and even ran a hotdog special! While the kids just think they’re having fun, Dad is actually helping them grow and learn.

There are five main benefits to a play grocery store or other role-playing games for children. The activity helps them to develop communication skills and build vocabulary. Interactions improve social and emotional development. Using play money helps children learn the concept of money. They improve physical development by coordinating hand and eye control to grasp and scan objects. Lastly, activities like this help with cognitive development.

Parents like Mason are winning! When is the last time you had a tea party with your toddler? Consider role-playing activities to enrich your children’s development. As Mason shows us, parents can have a lot of fun, too! Let yourself be a kid again.
