See anyone familiar?

Charlotte has a subscription to a bi-monthly magazine called "Turtle" (a gift from NanaB and GrandDad that she adores).  Each issue has a two-page spread called "Turtle's Pet Show" that features photos of readers with their animals.  When we got the most recent issue, we were all hanging out in Peter's room while Charlotte flipped through the magazine.  She suddenly said, "hey -- there's me, Mommy!"  I looked over her shoulder, and sure enough there she was in all her ballerina glory holding Rocky on the day he came to live with us at 5 weeks old.  (Click on the photo to make it larger.)


I couldn't stop giggling.  Even though I had uploaded the photo to the magazine's website a few months ago, I had forgotten about it and never really thought the photo would get in there anyway.  We Skyped with NanaB and GrandDad to show them and they were as tickled as we were.  Charlotte really wasn't exceptionally impressed.  After all, she has grown up with seeing herself plastered on the fridge, the walls, the internet, in photo albums, in those self-published photo books, etc.  This was just another piece of evidence to support her conclusion that the world revolves around Charlotte JoAnn Stringer.
