So back in August M worked really hard to earn the privilege of having a fish. To get her fish she had to work to break her bad habit of putting EVERYTHING in her mouth. Let's just say that it was an exciting day when we went to the store on the 30th to pick out Otto. (She'd had the name picked out for weeks.) We proudly bought him and brought him to his new home. It was the most precious thing watching her carefully carry him to the car. She watched daddy place him in his bowl.
And she even had a tea party with him.
Then...he DIED within 36 hours!!!!
(I will have to post that conversation at a later time. Ugh!)
M decided that she did want a new fish so...meet Emma. Our newest family member.
She's lived for a few weeks now.
The first few weeks, every morning M would walk in the kitchen and check the bowl.
Then she would inform me excitedly, "She LIVES for another day!"
We are very thankful! :)
