Fish #2

Well, last week we decided through much begging to let Ristow get a pet fish. We ended up with a Beta fish named Dorothy. Unfortunately Dorothy died last night which we thought would be very difficult for Ristow. Christopher called him over this morning and explained what happened to Dorothy. Without missing a beat Ristow says "ok, guess I'll get a different pet."

Great, that was easy, or so I thought. Apparently Ristow thinks that when a pet dies you get to upgrade to a newer and more fun pet. On the way to the Pet store he now is asking for a bird, dog or cat. After saying no to those, he disappointedly asks for a hamster, "those are small" he says.
We settle on a different color Beta fish and are on our way, As the fish lady calls out after us to remind us NOT to put seashells in the tank this time.
We will see how long this one lasts. Wish us luck!
