Last week Nana and Grandpa came home with shells from Florida. So, we put them to use and got the kids each a fish. Isaac was so excited carrying them home from Meijers. He was poking at them in the bag. We got them situated in their new fish bowl and he couldn't wait to show Josiah when he came home from school. On Sunday, I was in another room and heard the shells moving around in the sink. So sure enough I went out to look at what Josiah was doing (Isaac was gone with Dan). The fish were missing out of the fish bowl. So I asked Josiah in a panicked tone what did you do with the fish. He said, "I put them in my hat." He was carrying them around in his new baseball cap. Apperently that is what they do in Cat In The Hat. These poor fish made it until today, when I got the call at work that the fish had died and daddy flushed them down the toilet. So tonight I came home and cleaned out the fish bowl and noticed along with the shells the fish now also had star stickers floating around. I think we need to get a pet that is a little more interactive for the kids.

I love it!! We haven't tried fish with Jake yet, but Emmah always wanted hers to play with her. It took a lot of explaining that fish have to stay in the water.
I never would have seen that coming. My kids never wanted to touch the fish. That is hilarious. That silly cat in the hat causes so many problems.
Smiles!
