April 24: So, one of my favorite movie scenes ever is from “The Sound of Music” but THIS VERSION, by New Zealand School Principal Shirley Serban, is one of the funny videos that’s made me laugh and sing at the same time during this crisis. I so appreciate all the hard work people are doing to make this world a better place.
