He came
He saw
He wanted nothing to do with us.
We decided that a fish was probably the best starter pet for our family. Oliver, Amelia and I went to the pet store and got a fish, some rocks and food (we already had the tank). We paid our $9.04 and were on our way. Oliver was so excited and Amelia seemed to get that there was something cool going on. We got him all set up in his cage and fed him. So far so good. I woke up on the morning to Oliver switching the tank light off and on saying, " Alex wake up. Mom! Alex won't wake up." Alex was "sleeping" on the bottom of the tank. Luckily there was a 14 day warranty. Tim and Oliver brought Alex to the "doctor" aka Pet Smart and got a new fish. Oliver must not have been that attached yet, because it didn't even phase him.
I'd like to introduce you to Alex the Red Fish.
He's been going strong for over a week. I think he's a keeper.

When you are ready to step up to a border collie, just say the word :) Or maybe a cranky 15 year old cat.....
