Yesterday 31 00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:39,680 Sunday was my twins sixteenth birthday. 32 00:01:40,359 --> 00:01:43,799 Speaker 1: Woo wooh. I can't believe there's sixteen. I know, I 33 00:01:43,879 --> 00:01:51,040 remember when they were three, four, very crazy. Yeah, lord, sixteen, imagine. 34 00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:55,959 Speaker 2: I had this moment of gratitude for the fact that, well, 35 00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:59,200 first of all, it's annoying that my kid's birthdays are 36 00:01:59,239 --> 00:02:02,359 so close to the holiday. Yeah, I know all three 37 00:02:02,439 --> 00:02:05,079 of your kids, all three of them, so it is. 38 00:02:05,239 --> 00:02:08,840 It feels like a lot of pressure because I wanted 39 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:11,759 to be special. I was talking to my friend who 40 00:02:11,879 --> 00:02:13,840 some of you guys knew who she is, Bonnie McFarlane, 41 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:15,840 my comedian friend, and she was like, oh my gosh, 42 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,199 she lives in New Jersey, and I was telling her 43 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:21,360 that I wasn't so we still weren't really sure what 44 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:22,879 we were doing. And she was like, oh my god, 45 00:02:23,039 --> 00:02:25,400 out here, it's like the sixteenth birthday is like a. 46 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:26,599 Speaker 1: Big sha deal. 47 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:29,439 Speaker 2: I was like, well, out here there's a lot of 48 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,520 big Hispanic community, so Keen scenaras are a big thing, 49 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:36,039 Like my kids are constantly getting invited to King Snaras. 50 00:02:36,319 --> 00:02:40,960 Speaker 1: Fifteen. But sweet sixteen, no, I know, not nothing, really, 51 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:44,560 not so much. No, doesn't really stand out out. Here's 52 00:02:44,599 --> 00:02:47,439 more of an East Coast thing, I think, so yeah, so, 53 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:50,800 But I was having a. 54 00:02:50,879 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 2: Moment of gratitude for the fact that, although it's pressure, 55 00:02:56,199 --> 00:02:59,520 this is the first year, I think where I have 56 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:04,479 truely felt like my kids have friends, they have a group. 57 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:09,840 Like through the years, both of my twins, Albie has 58 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:13,280 always had a group. And the reason why, and I've 59 00:03:14,039 --> 00:03:17,560 said this many times, is because I was hell bent 60 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:20,919 on making mom friends when Albie was a baby, and 61 00:03:21,039 --> 00:03:24,919 a lot of those friends she stayed friends with some 62 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,560 of those kids. So she's known quite a few kids 63 00:03:27,879 --> 00:03:30,159 since they were five years old, and it becomes kind 64 00:03:30,199 --> 00:03:34,080 of a built in, like she's not necessarily like besties 65 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:36,360 with them at all times, but it was like, oh, 66 00:03:36,439 --> 00:03:38,280 when it came to time to go to high school, 67 00:03:38,319 --> 00:03:40,840 it was like she had some people to go to 68 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,840 high school, right that she hadn't even been in school 69 00:03:43,879 --> 00:03:47,080 with before, right, that were her friends through her whole 70 00:03:47,199 --> 00:03:48,719 You know, she's had a friend that they've been to 71 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:51,800 every single one of each other's birthdays, so the first 72 00:03:51,879 --> 00:03:57,120 one that's so cute, every single one. So I've just 73 00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:01,479 never worried that much about her. Maybe one brief period 74 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,120 in middle school where she had that remember. 75 00:04:03,759 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 1: When I was old, Yeah, hot and cold. Oh my god, 76 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:08,319 the old day. 77 00:04:08,479 --> 00:04:12,039 Speaker 2: But we're still in touch with Who's totally fine now 78 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:16,040 like when away to college, Like she and LB are 79 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:20,920 totally cool. But yes, middle school major drama for one year. 80 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,800 I'll be like, had no friends for a brief period 81 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:25,560 of time, but then she had a best friend, and 82 00:04:25,639 --> 00:04:28,720 then that best friend moved away. But then she fell 83 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:32,560 in with a little foursome, you know, and then they 84 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:36,079 and then high school she's just been fine. Yeah, Sadie 85 00:04:36,079 --> 00:04:39,959 and Xander, as you guys know, four years it was like, 86 00:04:40,079 --> 00:04:41,920 what am I gonna do with these kids? What am 87 00:04:41,959 --> 00:04:44,920 I gonna do? They're not making this school's hard? Then 88 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:48,120 this school's hard. And then everybody was like send them 89 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:51,399 to the big public middle school. They said, they're gonna 90 00:04:51,439 --> 00:04:54,079 do great there, they said, And then Sadie was promptly 91 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:57,360 traumatized by that. Right made like one friend there. 92 00:04:57,759 --> 00:05:04,839 Speaker 1: Whatever happened to the kid who his dad was like, uh, 93 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,000 he had to go pick him. He left him at 94 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,319 the airport. The kid had to get picked up from 95 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:10,720 the air Oh. 96 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:14,319 Speaker 2: My god, I forgot what I named that kid. Yeah, 97 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:16,639 they know that we're not in touch with those people 98 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:20,319 out Okay, Now I wonder if his dad's still waiting 99 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:23,680 at the airport. There have been some random Yeah, there 100 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:27,240 have been some randos. I was just saying to my 101 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:30,319 kids yesterday. I was like, it's so interesting that this 102 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:34,759 high school has been very good to them. Xander struggled 103 00:05:34,759 --> 00:05:37,920 a little bit there last year, but now he's like 104 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,600 found his groove and he's like really involved in a 105 00:05:41,639 --> 00:05:45,000 lot of things, and they just have this nice circle 106 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:50,040 of friends. They're just like nice kids, right, And it's 107 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:54,519 not that they're like it's not because of I know 108 00:05:54,639 --> 00:05:57,879 that I've I know that Sadie came on our podcast 109 00:05:57,959 --> 00:05:59,600 and talked about how a lot of these kids are 110 00:05:59,639 --> 00:06:03,920 like using substances and blah blah blah, and you know whatever. 111 00:06:04,079 --> 00:06:07,360 It's a little bit of an alternative school, but it's 112 00:06:07,639 --> 00:06:11,800 artsy and there's just like they just all the kids 113 00:06:11,959 --> 00:06:15,279 are very inclusive with each other and they've just fallen 114 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:18,680 into this nice groove. And I think I told you 115 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:22,519 that Lyle is le Crocodile who he met in middle school. Yeah, 116 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:27,040 and then we all helped out that mom who Haram 117 00:06:27,199 --> 00:06:30,560 is still struggling a bit because she's like makes minimum 118 00:06:30,639 --> 00:06:33,959 way trying to keep her family afloat. It's been hard. 119 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:36,839 I'm helping her out here and there as much as 120 00:06:36,879 --> 00:06:42,839 I can. But Xander and Lyle, Lyle's like it's he's 121 00:06:42,879 --> 00:06:47,040 had a lot of trauma, but Xander has They are 122 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:48,480 still really good fronts. 123 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 1: That's good. 124 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:54,240 Speaker 2: And so Xander like basically the mom moved him over 125 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:58,439 away from the big high school right after ninth grade 126 00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:02,079 and he's now joined Xander that's his school and like 127 00:07:02,399 --> 00:07:05,000 he's having a good time. So that's the friend that's 128 00:07:05,079 --> 00:07:08,000 left over. And then Sadie made one friend at the 129 00:07:08,079 --> 00:07:12,439 big public middle school and that she's still friends with 130 00:07:12,519 --> 00:07:15,519 that person, but everybody else is kind of like newer friends. 131 00:07:15,639 --> 00:07:20,959 But they're cool. And I was so pleased they so 132 00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:22,600 I kept asking them, what do you guys want to 133 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:25,040 do for your birthday?

They were like harassing her, 218 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:46,919 but in a but they thought they thought they were 219 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:49,559 being funny. But Elbie later told me she's like, oh, 220 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:51,639 I love it when that happens. I don't care. Yeah, 221 00:11:51,799 --> 00:11:54,120 because they just kept interrupting her thing and then she'd 222 00:11:54,159 --> 00:11:57,440 be like ahh and then so at one point. 223 00:11:57,320 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 3: She get a couple jokes in there. 224 00:11:58,639 --> 00:12:02,440 Speaker 2: She got a couple of laughs.

And then she's 228 00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:14,960 like or five seconds, like you know, or it might 229 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:17,360 feel like forever, but it's five seconds. Anyway, the guy 230 00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:21,080 said something and she was like, no, something, and he goes, oh, 231 00:12:21,399 --> 00:12:26,360 modedded Did you just say moded wow? 232 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:28,559 Speaker 1: Love you wow?

So last year they 296 00:15:48,519 --> 00:15:50,919 did laser tag and it was a bunch of people 297 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:52,919 that they didn't know that well because I hadn't been 298 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:56,120 at the school that long, So they just invited random people. Yeah, 299 00:15:57,240 --> 00:15:59,799 and this year it was like actual friends that they 300 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:02,919 talked to outside of school that they've had over to 301 00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:04,080 their house, you know what I mean. 302 00:16:04,159 --> 00:16:06,639 Speaker 1: And it looks like they found their people at this school. 303 00:16:06,799 --> 00:16:10,799 Like it's nice. Yeah, it's great. Yeah, I'm happy for that. 304 00:16:11,039 --> 00:16:12,600 I know, that's awesome. 305 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:15,519 Speaker 2: And just like a little update about you know, Xander, 306 00:16:15,639 --> 00:16:20,120 he's just they're both really involved in stuff in school 307 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:24,720 and you know, getting good grades. And then Xander with 308 00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:28,399 this music, you know, he started out in COVID, taught 309 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:31,039 himself how to play guitar. Because I told you, we 310 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:33,679 offered them lessons and neither one of them wanted to 311 00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:37,440 sit and watch YouTube, right lessons, right, and it was COVID, 312 00:16:37,559 --> 00:16:40,480 so they couldn't do in person lessons. And then we 313 00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:43,039 tried to do he signed them up for these like 314 00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:48,399 tutorials and Xander was like like and then Xander just 315 00:16:48,559 --> 00:16:51,799 learned it off of YouTube and now he's really good 316 00:16:52,399 --> 00:16:54,879 and he's in this program in school where they do 317 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:57,720 these shows, which you've all heard me talk about. But 318 00:16:57,879 --> 00:17:02,840 so Xander wrote, two kids that are doing in a 319 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:06,720 band that are performing a song, ask Xander if he 320 00:17:06,759 --> 00:17:10,640 would write a solo, a guitar solo for the song 321 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:13,559 that they're going to do, and he did, and then 322 00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:16,440 he recorded himself doing it, which I posted on my 323 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:19,119 social media. But I want to just play it and 324 00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:21,359 he was like, mom, do you want to hear the 325 00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:25,039 solo that I wrote? And I was like okay, and 326 00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:26,519 then I was freaking blown away. 327 00:17:26,640 --> 00:18:17,039 Speaker 1: It's amazing, let's play it. That's insane. How do you 328 00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:17,519 do that? 329 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:18,759 Speaker 3: I know? 330 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:21,319 Speaker 2: I asked him, Yeah, how did you think of that? 331 00:18:21,559 --> 00:18:25,720 Like I've never understood how people make music, like how 332 00:18:25,759 --> 00:18:27,559 they think of it, Like how do you think of 333 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:30,359 a song? Like I would never be able to do 334 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:32,400 it because I would think of like how it starts, 335 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:35,200 and then I would immediately forget like yeah that to 336 00:18:35,319 --> 00:18:37,880 record myself. I'd be like, oh, here's like a melody, 337 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:38,680 and then i'd. 338 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:42,160 Speaker 1: Do you get back to it? I know, or I 339 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,039 would start it and I would end up being like 340 00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:46,839 so like Eric Clapton song or something I could turned 341 00:18:46,839 --> 00:18:47,960 into somebody else's song. 342 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:54,839 Speaker 2: You're like, oh, that sounds good. Yeah, and then someone's like, no, 343 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:58,480 that's a song that exists. That's how I would be. 344 00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:02,039 I asked him, and he said because he's like, yeah, 345 00:19:02,079 --> 00:19:06,200 it's he said, he doesn't know scales, he doesn't read music. 346 00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:09,319 He's right. So he's like, but I know enough about 347 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:11,440 like I know what's what it sounds like, like what's 348 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:13,279 a half a step up? And what's a step up? 349 00:19:13,319 --> 00:19:15,119 And he goes, So I think of how it's going 350 00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:19,319 to start, and then I just interesting improvised from then 351 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:22,079 I just know how like I start it and then 352 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:23,799 I go to the next part and then I just 353 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,960 let it and I'm like, I don't that amazing? 354 00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:29,559 Speaker 1: And so his teeth. Did his teacher ask him to 355 00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:31,279 do that? Or is he no? 356 00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 2: So so the teacher it's so it's this program called 357 00:19:35,839 --> 00:19:38,960 Music Lab and it's a class, but it's also like 358 00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:42,680 they they the teacher split them all into bands, right, 359 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:46,880 and then all the bands get like twenty minutes. There's 360 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:51,680 a big show on December ninth, right, like, so it's 361 00:19:51,759 --> 00:19:54,039 going to be like a four hour show on a Saturday, 362 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:57,359 and then all the bands perform and they all so 363 00:19:57,519 --> 00:20:00,359 they so they can also mix and match. So if 364 00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:02,359 one band is like, oh, we don't we need somebody 365 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,319 to do guitar solo in our song, they could like 366 00:20:05,799 --> 00:20:08,359 ask Xander, hey, we're doing this song, will you do 367 00:20:08,519 --> 00:20:08,920 it right? 368 00:20:09,599 --> 00:20:10,640 Speaker 1: That's crazy, you. 369 00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:15,359 Speaker 2: Guess, and so Xander so yeah.

Yes, and he's good 380 00:20:46,079 --> 00:20:48,319 at it and he's just gonna get better and better. 381 00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:51,839 Speaker 2: That's a and just so proud of him. And he's 382 00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:54,839 such a go getter, you know. And then Sadie's also 383 00:20:55,079 --> 00:20:58,960 like playing guitar a lot. She's playing guitar. Well, she 384 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,400 was originally going to be the bass player and she 385 00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:04,200 can play a little bit of bass now, but because 386 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:07,400 her band needed somebody who was good at guitar. She's 387 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:09,960 kind of stepped it up and like she's gotten really 388 00:21:10,039 --> 00:21:13,279 good and so she's I mean, it's cute. 389 00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:17,240 Speaker 1: It's so cute. I love that they got musical, like 390 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:18,880 ears great. 391 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,640 Speaker 2: They don't get it from me. I'm telling you, I 392 00:21:21,759 --> 00:21:22,680 am not musical. 393 00:21:23,319 --> 00:21:28,519 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's interesting. What about John? No, nope, anybody in 394 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:33,200 his family or your family, not that I can think of. Well, 395 00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:35,400 maybe it's in an artistic gene or something. 396 00:21:35,519 --> 00:21:35,920 Speaker 2: I don't know. 397 00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:38,640 Speaker 1: It's weird. I don't know where you get it. How 398 00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:40,039 do you get it? And also where do you get 399 00:21:40,079 --> 00:21:42,319 your singing? Like when somebody can sing? Like, how does that? 400 00:21:42,519 --> 00:21:44,519 How do that is that? I know? 401 00:21:44,599 --> 00:21:47,960 Speaker 2: Because I cannot sing?

She was just 405 00:21:54,759 --> 00:21:57,279 like I was like, where did that voice come from? 406 00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:00,920 When she played Jasmine in Aladdin in fifth grade and 407 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:04,839 I was like, holy shit, where did that come from? 408 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:07,319 It's not from me. I cannot carry a tune. Neither 409 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:11,119 can John. Like a terrible thing. Nobody in my family really. 410 00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:13,240 But then Elbe kind of took it for granted and 411 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:17,079 was like, right, it was fun. What else is what 412 00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:18,079 else is out there to do? 413 00:22:18,519 --> 00:22:21,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, well that's Albie though she likes to do all 414 00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:25,519 these different things. But that's awesome. That's awesome. So they 415 00:22:25,559 --> 00:22:28,519 had a good birthday. Then, uh it was so fun. 416 00:22:28,799 --> 00:22:32,160 Speaker 2: And then but it was like, oh my god. Just 417 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:35,359 the buying them gifts though, is like it's it's pressure 418 00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:38,160 at this age because they only want shit that they've 419 00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:43,680 seen on TikTok or clothes, very specific clothes. So I 420 00:22:43,759 --> 00:22:47,200 had to have Elbe help me. We got Xander death 421 00:22:47,279 --> 00:22:52,160 Row Records T shirt and a puffer a brown puffer 422 00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:55,759 coat from Pacsun, which we knew he would like. And 423 00:22:55,839 --> 00:22:59,000 then Sadie I got her a pair of jeans that 424 00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:02,240 she tried on it or Urban and liked, but then 425 00:23:02,279 --> 00:23:04,200 didn't want to spend the money on herself. So then 426 00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:07,160 I came home and immediately ordered them off of the 427 00:23:07,279 --> 00:23:10,079 website because I knew what size they were, I knew 428 00:23:10,079 --> 00:23:13,920 the exact you know. I furtively snapped myself a picture 429 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:15,880 of them so that I could go home and order them. 430 00:23:16,279 --> 00:23:18,720 But like that's how what it's come down to. Yeah, 431 00:23:18,759 --> 00:23:21,359 there's no like you can't surprise them with shit anymore. 432 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:21,880 Speaker 1: It's hard. 433 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,440 Speaker 2: I don't like they don't the surprise is going to 434 00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:28,240 be only a bad surprise, right right right exactly. And 435 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:32,160 even when I think Sadie will like something, like for instance, 436 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:34,119 there was this sweater that they had at Urban and 437 00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:37,480 I was like, oh, this sweater seems so Sadie, but 438 00:23:37,599 --> 00:23:39,920 they didn't have the color that I wanted on the 439 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:42,880 website and I couldn't find it and it was out 440 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:44,839 of stock and out of stock, and there was this other, 441 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:49,000 another color version of it, and I was obsessing about 442 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:50,599 the sweater. I was like, I really think she'll like 443 00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:53,920 this for Christmas. She likes these kind of big, oversized sweaters. 444 00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:54,359 Speaker 1: Yeah. 445 00:23:54,559 --> 00:23:57,920 Speaker 2: I finally broke down because I was like, we were 446 00:23:58,279 --> 00:24:00,079 I was with her and we were at urb and 447 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:01,599 I was like, what do you think of that sweater? 448 00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:05,920 And it was and she was like ugh no, oh no. 449 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:08,319 I was like, I'm glad you told me because I 450 00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:10,680 was thinking about getting it for you for Christmas. And 451 00:24:10,759 --> 00:24:13,440 she was like no, and then what if it was 452 00:24:13,599 --> 00:24:16,359 in green? This like green and kind of light purple 453 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:18,880 color and she goes worse. Oh oh my god. 454 00:24:20,599 --> 00:24:25,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, bullet dodged right.

Found one on Facebook marketplace 550 00:29:11,279 --> 00:29:13,279 seemed fine. We ended up having to have it like 551 00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:17,759 it turned out that they'd done something weird with the 552 00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:21,480 that it was not a usual way that something is strong. 553 00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:23,799 So something broke and we had to bring it to 554 00:29:23,839 --> 00:29:26,039 Guitar Center and they were like, yeah, this is we're 555 00:29:26,079 --> 00:29:28,200 going to redo this for you because this is not 556 00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:31,640 it's not easy for her to play.

John's like, well 558 00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:41,359 then you run into like somebody's guitar that they've changed, Like, 559 00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:43,440 you know, you want your kid to be able to 560 00:29:43,599 --> 00:29:46,960 go and try the guitar and figure out what the is. Anyway, 561 00:29:47,039 --> 00:29:51,160 I'm like all right, so and he's like also, so 562 00:29:51,319 --> 00:29:53,799 Xander got to have that experience and now Sadie's been 563 00:29:53,839 --> 00:29:56,920 really practicing and practicing and she should.
