I asked Mr Google why a ginormous footstool is called an ottoman, and he said that it is called that after the ginormous Ottoman empire. I guess that’s why Angel Lexi always called it her “throne,” and delighted in laying on it.
This is Lexi, seven years old in 2010. She was the reigning queen on her throne.
My Guardian Angel Lexi bequeathed her throne to me, the warrior princess. 
Here I am on the same ottoman throne. Someday, when I am a little older, I will be the reigning queen, too!
I am Xena the Schnauzer Warrior Princess

Even though I’ve had my Big Girl time, Mommy says I’m still her baby princess.

Charlee: “It’s good to be the Princess, isn’t it, Xena? Don’t you agree, Chaplin?”
Chaplin: “I wouldn’t know.”
Charlee: “And of course the next step after Princess is definitely Queen, isn’t that right, Chaplin?”
Chaplin: “Again, I wouldn’t know.”
Charlee: “Yep, enjoy that throne, Xena. It will certainly be yours some day!”

I wanted a crown, then found out I would have to wear it on my head. I don’t like stuff on my head. But I could use the scepter to smack Lucy! XOX Xena

We have many thrones, but none of them are from the Ottoman Empire. Sophie was named after my grandmother who was born in the Ottoman Empire.

Being queen of the Ottomans today is like being Pharaoh of Egypt-powerless. It’s better to be Caesar in Rome.
