This year at the Hanukkah party Ivan sung along to the songs with the choir led by his grandpa. While I doubt with his anxieties he will take up musical performance, I noted sitting next to him that his voice is very nice and he is much better at staying on key than his mother. He has also learned all the lyrics to a number of Weird Al songs this winter school break. His favorites being “Radioactive Hamsters from a planet near Mars” and “Biggest Ball of Twine in Minnesota.” He is also enamored of singing “Particle Man” and “Doctor Worm” by They Might be Giants.
