R.I.P. Tootse...

My sweet little turtle, Tootse, passed away yesterday.

I know, I know... She was just a turtle. But she was MY turtle, and it made me sad.


My mom found Tootse on a dirt road that runs along the family farm in Kansas, and smuggled her back to Arizona for me in an earring box... She was that tiny! That little turtle has been with me ever since... from Arizona, to Indiana, to Ohio. She was even a part of the family before Cookie was.

She was a fun little creature and I'm really going to miss having her around.
