    Dear Diary - Turtle Doves?

    Dear Diary,

    Do you remember the Santa in the back yard? Well...he brought an early present for us....

    I found it under a tree in the yard....when I first saw it...I was a little afraid...but he is very nice....

    HH likes him too....



    Isn't this a nice present?

    So, is Mom letting you keep him???

    Our granparent's have a turtle like that, his name is Herby. We've never got to see or touch him like that. You sure are lucky!!

    What a lovely present! You two lead such an exciting life with all these little friends you meet! We'll probably get another boring toy that we don't like from Santa!

    Enviously,

    Dear Eddie, now there is finally a friend who is neither a dragon to be slain nor a scaredy chipmunk to die from a heart attack. I hope he stays with you and HH for a long and happy time

    BTW: what is a Russian tortoise? Something different from a SoCa tortoise a suppose- does it mean it escaped somewhere?

    Hmmmm....somehow I always pictured turtle doves resembling more of their dove ancestry than their turtle history....but then again, that shows what I know about turtle doves.

    Dear Diary

    Wow! That's a really neat present, Eddie. Mr. Turtle looks like a really nice guy. What's his name? Does he eat your food? It will be nice for you to have another play mate. I never saw a real turtle before. Well, I hope that you and Lady Edwina have a very Meowie Christmas with lots of other nice presents and plenty of tasty treats. I hope you'll tell us more about your new friend and I hope he plays nicely with you.

    Your friend,
