Goldfish

Over the course of the last month or two, KB has acquired four little goldfish! :) "Nemo", "Fishy", & "Shark-bait" and a fourth, yet to be named, happily reside in a large fishbowl, in the middle of our kitchen table - dearly loved & observed by all.


But alas, I guess there is a reason we never found a name for that fourth little fish. For sadly, we came in this morning to find our little golden aquatic friend having an extended "sleeping" break.Not wanting to make a big deal that is was permanently "all gone"... I quietly slipped away to the bathroom - fish bowl in tow - where goldie received the proper ritualistic burial by flush.

But.... much to my chagrin.... our little girl is way too smart for her own britches. Just as I was walking back in the kitchen, to replace the fish bowl back into it's rightful resting place... KB suddenly looks up from what she's doing - having heard the distant flush - and exclaims with such excitement & glee... "Mommy, fish go pee?!" ::clapping hands:: "Yay!!!!"

Oh my.... hahaha.! ~ Can you tell who's focused on the whole potty training thing these days?? ;-)

Now I just hope the others don't involuntarily follow suite... :-/ -- Yeah, I think we'll be keeping the chairs up on the table, for a while - just in case. ;)
