Thank you Emma for replying
I figured I should try and take a picture of Romeo so I can explain this better but my kids swiped the last of my camera batteries(I guess the big speech I gave them and the sign stating "DO NOT TOUCH! mom's batteries" was not enough)
Anyhow when my husband gets home from the night shift I will try to get into the city and get some more so I can post pics of both Romeo and Juliette!
PS I used the comparision to an American dime because I figured most people would know what size that is! how about the size of a small thimble??
