It takes a lot of courage to step onto a stage and perform, especially when you’re just a toddler. But that’s exactly what 3-year-old Drake Winslow did when he sang the National Anthem in front of a crowd of 6,000 people. And let me tell you, his performance was nothing short of amazing.
Drake’s love for singing has been evident since he was a baby. His mom, Chelsea, says he would often sing around the house, but his favorite song has always been the Star Spangled Banner. So when the opportunity came for Drake to perform at the School Day game in Syracuse, New York, he didn’t hesitate.
“He’s too little to realize how big of a deal it is,” says Chelsea. “We just try to stay calm for him and not really talk it up. We don’t ask him if he’s nervous. So then maybe he won’t think of that. I don’t think he really knows what nervous is yet.”
