Yes, that is Bella, my little 6 year old.  Today was book day at school, and the kids can choose any character from a book and they get to come to school dressed as that character.  Well, as you all know, Bella is a huge Hannah Montana fan.  But instead of wearing a blonde wig all day, she opted to be Miley Cyrus.  Since I didn't have to far to go to make that happen, we had a pleasant morning and she looked stunning for school.  Some of the kids showed up as cats, there was a Snow Queen from Narnia (my favorite) there was a Hairy Hagus (won first place for best dressed)  not a favorite of mine, we had witches from the book, Winny the Witch (very popular here in England), we had cheerleaders, ponies, and cowboys.  Many more, but I can't remember them all in my old age!  lol 
Tomorrow night we will attend a music competition for Caleb.  Two children from each House is chosen to compete.   The other student is 2 years older than Caleb and has been playing for years.  But that is ok, because Caleb has been playing for 10 months and was chosen to be in this competition.  As far as I am concerned, he is already a winner!  I can't wait to see him perform in front of a crowd.  He has only done this once, at Calvary church when we were home at Christmas, and he was very nervous.  Today, the teacher had him play his "Turkish March" in front of one of the year 8 classes and he said that he just kept getting faster and faster.  Did I mention that Caleb memorizes all these classical pieces and jazz pieces and then plays them?  That is why during nerves, he can end up going faster and faster!  lol    He will get better.  This is all experience, I tell him.  Please pray for him for tomorrow night as he goes through another "growing" experience here in England!

What an awesome experience for Caleb, and of course, Bella looks just like Miley. You'll have to let us know how they get on (love that British sounding phrase)...
