S.S.

This is Nova with her buddy "S.S." (aka. Strawberry Shortcake). Although S.S. has to compete with Elmo, Gymbo, Thomas, Dora and assorted other robot and monster characters, S.S. can always make Nova smile. Especially when daddy or mommy add the magic S.S. voice. I also believe she has contributed to Nova's seemingly endless hunger for "berries" in whatever form available (which also includes anything that even comes close to looking like a raisin.) The days of silently enjoying a bowl of Cheerios with Berries are over. Nova can spot a berry in a bowl from a mile away. But we do love S.S!
