Both leaf types on one plant or do my eyes deceive me?

The plant below is Lucky Cross Pink and the foliage appears to exhibit two different types of foliage. Is that possible? Both photos are of the same plant.

Jay, what I see are PL type leaves at the bottom and RL's further up. And Kellogg's Breakfast is one that does that to me whenever I grow it, and there are others but I can't think of them now.

I like PL's and when I germinate a new supposed PL or one that I don't know the leaf type and see those PL leaves I get excited. But as the seedling grows the new leaves can be RL and not PL, which is why sometimes I have to wait for several sets of leaves before I know what I have.

Okay, thanks Carolyn. I had to make sure it wasn't just me out in the sun too long.
