HUFFINGTON POST, June 8, 2012 -- Michelle Obama visited Mom's Apple Pie Company in Occoquan, Va. on Thursday, CBS reports. She received a warm welcome from patrons who hugged her, cheered and lined up to pose for photos (or film the entire visit on their phones).

Among the crowd, was 6-year-old Sydney Trapp who ran to get her violin, and then, showed off her skills by playing "Ode To Joy" for the First Lady. Obama hugged the girl and told her she was "awesome." Of course, in true mom form, she also told Sydney not to leave her violin on the floor, for fear it might get crushed.

And notice how the "First Mom" reminds the young girl to pick up her violin off the floor so nobody steps on it.

If this doesn't bring a smile to your face you need a heart transplant!!!

Brother Rich, seeing the theme of this post brought a big smile to my face...

you see this song "ODE TO JOY" is so powerful and so loved until when it became a favorite of the president of the ND Buddhist president, who introduced it to many of us, it caused millions of us in our organization to get excommunicated...much like politician use any little thing to go against our first lady the head priest used president Ikeda's liking this song as a way to prove he was worshiping the creator of "Ode to Joy" to send us astray...

yes, the mind is a terriable thing to waste so thanks for showing how the beauty of music is universal and is suppose to make us happy and unified and to listen to our Mother's good adviced all in one blog. LOL!!! (smile)
