Welcome Jen! Just to tell you, you have chosen one of the most popular avatars. If that is OK with you, great (it is a pretty one! glitter!!), but if you want more uniqueness, look further.

It is great to hear that your doctors have managed to get the disease under control.

lol Hamster, avatars would not have crossed my mind. My little son loves yours, whenever he's trying to peek over at what I'm doing. MissLaura uses the same glittery butterfly right? I haven't seen any others with mine but I should mix it up some time.

At any rate, Jen, hope you had a good day?

That is funny! I sometimes look for images of hamsters that are more like the actual hamsters that I have had (a big number as you can imagine - my last hamster, once I finally figured out how to keep them properly, lived to the upper limit of hamsters' life expectancy) but I cannot find them, so I have what I have. Say hello to your little son!

I think yours is unique. And yes, Miss Laura also uses the glittery butterfly. It is a very attractive one.
