Bunnies!!

Tonight when I came home from work I found these in my living room. Grammy (MIL) got bunnies for both Carson and Abbi. Not just one for them to share. They both have one.



The kids are so happy and totally in LOVE with their new pets. Thanks Grammy!

Abbi's heart is broken over a fish!

Against my wishes Abbi got a fish for Easter. I knew that fish don't last long yet Jaime wanted her to have her own pet. Tonight when we got home Abbi went to her room to change out of her soccer uniform while I made dinner.(yes I did make dinner tonight YAY for me!)I heard Abbi crying and I knew immediately why. She came downstairs with Hugh tears in her eyes.My little girls heart is broken over a fish!

Abbi: My fishy died mommy!!
Abbi: Why did it die?
Mom: Well we don't know why, maybe she was sick or missed her friends at the store.
Abbi: What are we going to do with her?
Mom: Well why don't we flush it down the toilet
Abbi: Why?
Mom: That's the way to fishy heaven
Abbi: Fishys go to heaven
Mom: Sure they do, there is a heaven for everyone even pets
Abbi: Will she be happy in fishy heaven?
Mom: Yes she will and she will have friends too
Abbi: OK mommy. But I'm still sad about my fishy
Mom: I know but we can go get another one this weekend

I think Walmart will make lots of money from us with Abbi's fascination for fish. We will see how long the next one lasts. Hopefully longer than 2 1/2 days. Any ideas on what fish to get that will last longer in a gallon fish tank?
