What Inspires You? "TODD!"

INSPIRATION CAN COME FROM ANYWHERE. WHAT INSPIRE YOU?

Last week my twin sister and I stopped on the street and bought the cutest ring for only $2! A turtle whose rusted, tarnished gold caught my eye. It was not until after I bought it and put it on that I noticed his head, legs and tail moves. My new turtle ring is ALIVE and full of life!

This inspired me in so many ways. It made me want to do great things. I named him TODD. I wear him when I want to feel inspired, creative and be in good spirits.

TODD has 17 jeweled spots, and red eyes.
