Our dear Lenny fish is gone. He was fine last night when I fed him right before bed, but I noticed he wasn't moving when I walked by his vase this afternoon. He's scared me before by being so low to the bottom, and I'd always tap the glass or shake his vase a little and he'd start moving. (Sorry I disrupted your naps all those times, Lenny!) But, today he wasn't napping. :( When I told Keenan he had gone to fishy heaven, he cried. We talked for a while ... Keenan brought up how happy we were on the day we got him. He was our first pet and K was so proud to bring him home! He lived with us for a year and a half. We decided together to give him a proper burial. We dug a hole in the back of the yard, Keenan drew a cross in the dirt and topped it with decorative rocks. It may seem silly, but it was therapeutic. Goodbye Lenny fish, we'll miss you so.
