Is a hippopotamus a hippopotamus, or just a really cool Opotamus?

SUBJECT: Hippopotamus figurines
StellaDella had a follow-up appointment at the pediatrician today to verify that her kidney infection is completely cleared up. It was…Yay! One bank of the exam rooms have windows that overlook a large plant bed. The doctor’s office workers have placed animal figures throughout the foliage. The kids always enjoy looking out the window and spying the animals. There are dinosaurs, beavers, giraffes, dragons, frogs, lizards, goats, horses, chickens, fairies, unicorns and the above hippos (and lions and tigers and bears, oh my!). For an idea on the actual size of the figurines, that’s a 3-leaf clover between the mama and her baby.

What an absolutely brilliant and inspired idea!
And the photo is a smile-making one even before one gets to the explanation.
Glad Stelladella is doing ok.

what a cool idea from the doc!! Great shot!
What a great idea. I can see that kids would love to look out and find those things.
I'm glad to hear the good news on SD too!
Lucy - I always liked it myself and am disappointed when we are ushered to a room on the other side of the office where we can't see them!
bentonflocke - It's a great office - which is why I don't mind driving the distance to get there (it's about 33 miles away).
Mari - I'm glad she's better too, but the doctor wants to run some tests to make sure that her kidneys are ok...this was the 3rd infection in 12 months.
