Hayley worked so hard to earn stars on her chart (by getting ready for school each day without us having to nag or remind) and she chose to get a fish as her reward. She picked out a blue betta fish that she named Bob. She is SO excited about him! He has very quickly learned when and where she was feeding him each day and will swim right to that spot each time. Ainsley is now patiently earning her stars to get a fish that she plans to name Wanda. ha ha
**Update: Apparently when Ainsley brought home Wanda, we picked a fish that was diseased. Who of course, in turn, passed it along to Bob. So within about 3 days of getting Wanda, Bob was dead. Wanda followed a day later. Hayley was so sad when we picked her up at school and had to tell her about Bob. Poor girl! :( After a couple days, she was ready for Bob v.2 and Ainsley was ready to get Jessie. Both are VERY alert and active and healthy and aggressive, as betta fish should be! Success!

This is too cute. We got Collin a beta when he was 3 of which he named "Collin Fish", of course. In the year to follow, we proceeded to get "Collin Fish" 2, 3, and 4...all without Collin ever knowing! If I saw a floater, I quickly would run to the pet store and find another one the same color!! We never told him until last year!! :) Is that wrong? Bob and Wanda are swimming with all the Collin Fish-es in the Heavenly fish bowl in the sky. :) Great job on your chart Haley!!
