Time Out for GLEE!



Introducing Kellen Mirador Sarmiento! As a parent, when/if your child's video goes viral, there must be a feeling of glee, yet also a bit of trepidation, especially if one starts going through the comments. These parents were smart, because it looks like they created a new account with just this one video. The original video must have gotten millions of hits and hundred of comments, too. UNLESS, this was their first video upload to YouTube, and it became an instant sensation? Nah...




As for the show, Glee, my son also really enjoyed this number, and we watched it a number of times. We never let him watch the show because of its content, but TiVo'd and previewed each episode before deciding whether to show some of the singing and dancing routines or not. But, as the show went on, we showed him less and less, and eventually, one or two numbers. We wound up watching NBCs, The Sing-Off, which also had great singing and dancing. The great thing was having to worry about fast-forwarding or explaining anything that might not be age-appropriate, except maybe some lyrics if he was listening really closely. ;)

Is it harder or easier to grow up as a kid nowadays? This dad keeps wondering...

Best wishes to Kellen and Family. A happy kid = a happy family! :)

We in no way allow him look at the show merely as a end result of its content, but TiVo'd and previewed every episode previous to determining regardless of whether to show some from the singing and dancing routines or not. But, since the show went on.
What can we do in the relax time ? Listen to the music, watch TV, how about play the online games? We can play the WOW to spend the boring time and can also get the best WOW Gold during play the game. We can also play the famous Korea online games--Tera, this game is very famous in the world and there are many Tera Gold waiting for you! And we can also play the RS Gold.

Every woman's handbag is a lost cambridge satchel us and found department in itself. It is strange, but things actually disappear there, as by magic hermes handbags outlet. They finally reappear on the surface after three or four investigations and complete pell-mell of the contents. Every bus driver is fata touch. It is that individual touch that fills the bag. Some item is pretty sure to roll out the moment the hermes birkin for sale bag is opened.
