Thank you for your comment Arietta I`m really pleased that you like her.
You may like to know that in this photo she was expecting her 3rd baby and was looking a little depressed leaning against the glass enclosure, but if you scroll up the page you can see her looking much happier, swinging with her new baby who you can just manage to see clinging on to her and looking up at her as she swings :) Thanks for the fave!
