I’ve always loved theater, and I think it takes a lot of confidence to walk up on stage and sing or act.
To reach to the point where they can act, sing, and dance on stage with ease, adults must practice and train for years.
The child performer you are going to witness is a 3-year-old boy, who is arguably the youngest I have ever witnessed playing the National Anthem. He is not an adult.
He is winning so many hearts with his talent that the video of him singing has already garnered nearly half a million views.
Drake Winslow, age three, is the youngest individual to have ever sung the National Anthem during a Syracuse, New York, School Day game.
This self-assured young performer gave a faultless performance of the song in front of 6,000 spectators.
There was a standing ovation for his outstanding performance.
Drake’s mother, Chelsea, stood behind him throughout his performance and remarked, “I just think he’s too little to realize how big of a deal it is.”
We simply try not to bring it up too often and to be composed for him. He isn’t asked if he feels anxious. Perhaps he won’t consider that after that. He doesn’t truly understand what nervousness is yet.
His mother reports that although her lovely boy enjoys singing in the house, the Star Spangled Banner has always been his favorite tune.
Tip Hero said that he is now eager to sing it once more.
Watch the video below to see Drake’s excellent performance.
What a charming little guy he is. Since it brings so much joy to so many, I hope he keeps doing what he loves.
Military Veteran Is Honored At Basketball Game – Then He Sees Something That Brings Him To His Knees
Retired United States Army First Class Sergeant Luciano Yulfo was being honored recently at a New York Knicks game in Madison Square Garden when something happened that he was never expecting.
When Yulfo was brought down to the court, he had no idea the team’s Hoops For Troops had a big surprise for him!
During his 36 years in the military, Yulfo served in both Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom. He medically retired from active duty in 2014 after he was injured while deployed in Afghanistan. After being injured, Yulfo was stationed at the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center for 2 years. He finally retired from the military in April of 2016, 36 years after he enlisted.
As soon as Yulfo got back to the U.S., he applied for a service dog to help him deal with the injuries he suffered overseas, but he found himself placed on a waiting list for 18 months. When the Knicks heard about this, they knew they had to do something to help him.
Between quarters, the team brought Yulfo onto the court and gave him a personalized Knicks jersey. They then left him speechless by giving him a new service dog!
An organization called Paws of War trains and places rescue dogs with U.S. military veterans, and they decided to give a dog named Murphy to Yulfo! Each dog is trained specifically for the needs of the individual veteran they are serving, so Murphy is already completely prepared to help Yulfo!
Yulfo was overwhelmed by this gesture and he immediately dropped to his knees to greet the dog. It is clear that these two will be best friends for many years to come!
