So, John murdered our fish last night. It might have been involuntary manslaughter... Toby 2 jumped ship like all the fish in the Dentist office on Finding Nemo wanted to. But, John should have been using a net when he cleaned the bowls...
I made John tell Trevan about it this morning ("Why can't he just find another blue fish in the fish bowl later?" John asked. "It's dishonest," I replied.) So, John told Trevan that Toby 2 had an "accident."
"But, he doesn't have a bottom," Trevan replied.
We made him repeat it like 10 times, I had no idea what he was talking about. Then I got it.
"John, he thinks you are telling him that Toby 2 peed in his pants. An accident?"
Trevan took the news all right, and then I left the room. I was walking by when I heard John telling them about getting a dog. "But, mommy doesn't want a dog," I heard Trevan say. "It doesn't matter what mommy wants, it matters what Trevan and Mallary think about getting a dog," I heard John say. WHAT?????!!!!!
I opened the door, and said, "Excuse me..." John thinks he is so funny.
We will not be getting a dog, another fish, yes, but NO dog.
I'm pretty sure it matters what mommy wants...

I honestly thought we would be able to get together this summer. Thus is the story of my life. I don't know what kind of miracle it would take for me to get a dog, but it would have to be a pretty big one. But, my kids would LOVE to play with your dogs!!!! Soon! P.S. Be sure to go to the store, something old, something new, something beautiful when you go to the beach. :)
