A past violin teacher of Chips moved to Ohio four years ago, but she surprised us all by spontaneously flying down to Florida to attend the state music / strings competition back on April 30 and May 1. Her mother owns our local Suzuki school, and is getting older, so she decided to fly here to help her out with the grueling competition schedule.
We were all very happy to see her, and she was proud of her young beginner of seven years ago (Chips) doing so well at state. She was also amazed by how Sweet Girl had grown, and was playing music, especially since Sweet Girl was still in a stroller eating Cheerios when Chips was her student.
This afternoon, she sent us this nice photo taken of Sweet Girl shortly before she played her solo at the competition. I really like this photo. Her confidence that day really shows.

Lovely photo - Sweet Girl does look confident, but nicely so.
You're right, these competition schedules are gruelling, and particularly for the teachers who have students in several classes.
What a nice surprise, wonderful picture of sweet girl.
It is a darling picture, and her confidence showing through a picture taken by someone who's something of a stranger is great. It bodes well for her.
Thank you! The header is my home, the tree's are what I fell in love with. Love to sit out ther under them reading.
Hope your week has been well.
