There’s nothing better than reliving Christmas through the eyes of your kids…

I know I can always count on Cooper for a great reaction to his presents.  He was counting on a fish for Christmas.  He chose “bring a pet to school” as his last rainbow prize at school (way back in October-even though we didn’t have any pets!)  He was told by Mrs. Claus that his wish list would be pinned up in the elves’ workshop.  He was SURE the fish was coming.

Brent and I tried to come up with some other options…a remote control fish for the pool.  Would that work?  In the end, we decided to bite the bullet and add a new member to our family.

This morning we welcomed Freddie the Fish…named by Cooper.

Getting to know Freddie…

Freddie, I hope you survive many years at our house.  But, just in case you don’t, I’m glad to know you have many identical twins back at the pet shop that could step in for you if needed.
