Is it her eighth birthday - or her second?
For young Caitlin Bown it can sometimes be difficult to tell.
She was born eight ‘normal’ years ago but this is only the second February 29 since 2008, the year of her birth.
And to mark her extra, extra special day she celebrated with family and friends at party held at The Pottery in Alfreton.
Many happy returns, Caitlin, it’s only another 1,461 days until the next one!
