Guitar Lessons Continue

I'm still taking guitar lessons. I'm learning notes and chords and songs. Sometimes I even get to sing songs from my friend, Lew Dite. Like him, I've also named my guitar.

3 months of school

 I started a new school this year. This is from my first 3 months.

Guitar Lessons

I've started guitar lessons. I've learned C and G7. I also get to play and sing songs with my teacher.

10,000 Years Ago

Today, I tried singing "10,000 Years Ago." It's a great song with lots of funny lyrics.

If you want to hear a longer version and see the "real" words check it out on YouTube with Lew Dite.

Songs Lew Dite taught me to love

Recently, my Dad contacted Lew Dite, the nom de plume of John Parsons on YouTube. Lew Dite sings hundreds of folk songs from the last 2 centuries and I love to listen to them and sing them on my own. Last week, Lew Dite sent me CDs of his music and now I can't get enough of those, too. Here are some videos of me singing some of Lew Dite's music both a cappella and accompanied by my guitar strumming.

Right back at you, Mr. Dite.

Sam vs Nam

My brother Sam can't do too much.  Before he was born, mom told me he wouldn't be able to talk, walk or eat food.  I told her there was a baby in my belly, but she's a sister.  She can talk, walk, eat food and use the potty.  Her name is Nam.

Me and my brother

Before Sam was born, my mom told me she'd be going to the hospital for a couple of days and she'd come home with a baby.
Josh: No, just you come home.
Mom: What should I do with the baby?
Josh: Leave him there.
Mom: Who will take care of him?
Josh: Nobody
