Hong Kong's Next Top Model (or not)

Occasionally I get emails through a modeling agency advertising jobs for kids. It usually seems like too much of an overwhelming hassle, but this week was pretty free and with Jason home, we decided to go to our first model casting. A casting is like an audition and this one was for Elle. Incidentally later that day we saw this ad for Elle in the mall (our kids are cuter- don't you think?)

Having never been to a casting I didn't prepare the kids well. Josiah was not enthused about having to change into clothes that we ill- fitting and uncomfortable (fair enough).  He can be quite charming if he wants to, but he was not feeling it today.  When it came time to take some photos he looked everywhere but the camera and produced only goofy grins. I don't think we uncovered his life's calling and I don't think Elle will be calling us either (: 

 Annette on the other hand worked. it. She loved her little outfit, chatting with the ladies (who ate her up) and could have smiled for the camera all day. I'm hoping we get a call back for her, but I don't really know what they were looking for. Either way, it was an interesting experience and not too painful (although Josiah might not agree!)
