She's beautiful, MBH! I too love turtles, hadalways wanted one when I was growing up. The only time I ever owned anythough, was when my son was little and I bought two red-eared slidersfor him. They lived in an aquarium and had a grand time, and my sonused to love watching them. Then I got the great idea of putting somegoldfish in the water section of the tank, just to make it 'prettier'.Well, the fish were there for a couple of weeks and seemed to bethriving, but then one morning my son (who was 3) woke me up, veryupset. "Mom!!! Mom!!! The fish escaped!" Well, I told him that fishcan't escape from an aquarium, they had to be hiding somewhere behind arock or plant. But he kept insisting I go look, and so I did. No fish.What I did spot though, was one lone fin at the bottom of the tank, andtwo turtles with incriminating smiles on their faces.
So I told my son that yes, indeed...somehow the fish had escaped...:?
oops, got carried away there...
MBH, I forgot to ask...how big will Pokey get? I love her face!
