Charlie loves Music just as much as David and I do. With both David and I growing up listening to Buddy Holly’s music it will be fun to take Charlie to see The Buddy Holly Story this month. Charlie is excited to return to school tomorrow to share the event with his teachers because he knows they will want to see this new show as much as Charlie does.
