Thanks so much for your comment ForestDragon - and for the extra info! :-)
This is ridiculously adorable. This is a female, you can tell because she has an ovipositor (the curved sword-like thing that is coming from the end of her abdomen). The coloration and proportions of this baby's head to her body makes her look like a cartoon.
