A Year of Stories – Fish Number 3
Her birthday passed and with it, her piggy bank grew. She got it in her head that she was going to buy a fish. She saved and saved and finally we took pity on her; we lied and said she had enough to buy a fish. Well we didn’t lie, we just helped with all the other stuff you need to take care of a fish. She picked out a pretty pink tank, rocks and a cute little princess house that would make a great hiding spot for a fish. Then after a few days of the water being the perfect temperature, she picked her fish…a neon purple and neon pink goldfish. We tried to prepare her that sometimes after you buy a fish and move it to a new tank, it might die. She seemed okay with that fact.
They both survived the transition. She loved checking on them everyday and sprinkling little bits of food into their tank. But, her little brother saw her tending to them and thought he should do the same. We quickly discovered that he poured too much fish food into the tank last week. The shock of all that food, killed her neon pink and neon purple fish. She took it so well.
Hopefully fish number 3 doesn’t meet the same fate and does much better. Meet Nemo.
