Mellow Cello

Alexander has the opportunity this year to play in the orchestra at his Charter School. I always wanted a son to play the cello-- it has such a rich & mellow sound. Alexander was game to fulfill his Mom's wish:)
Alexander is such a well-rounded kid. He loves everything from baseball to piano, scouts to Star Wars, basketball to orchestra, Captain Underpants to primary songs. He is already doing a great job at his new instrument & I'm sure in no time at all he'll be playing Darth Vader's march.

He sounds like Cole. Captain Underpants, that cracks me up! Seriously, they sound so much alike. Funny! Must be a boy thing. :)

They are! Brothers from different mothers:)

Definitely! I'm so glad Cole has Alexander as one of his best friends. Alexander is a great kid and they get along so well.

I wanted to play the cello. My mom said no cuz I couldn't carry it home from school.

Nevermind that our school had cellos there, so we only needed to rent one from home... or that the cases had wheels on them even back in the day.

It's one of the few instruments that I wanted to learn that I never have :( Someday I will. I loooove the cello!!

He's grown so much since the last time I saw him.
