Goldie, Our Latest Family Member

Somehow, Nicholas got it into his head that we were going to buy him a Betta fish for his birthday that was orange and that he was going to name Goldie after the goldfish on Peppa Pig.  Sure enough, we gave in and picked up a fish for him.  He was so excited to see that they had an orange fish that's like John's blue fish, Blue.  We even had to pick up some orange rocks for Goldie's new bowl.

Both boys saw all sorts of pets that they want.  Maureen was squirming when John asked for a pet rat like his old class pet, Jewel.  Nicholas passed on my faux offer to get a turtle because he's happy having one in his classroom.
