King Triton
For awhile now Dax has been asking for a new pet. Sadly, his top two choices were not acceptable, number one being "a red dog" and number two being "a giraffe".
So his third choice was "a red fish". Fish? Can do!
Here is King Triton ruling over his new kingdom. He is overlord to three fish: a Red Wag Platy he named G-O (that spells GO!); a Mickey Mouse Platy (red, of course) that he named Mickey; and a polka dotted Catfish that he named Dyson (because it is the vacuum).
There was only one moment when I thought that we would be denied adopting fish. See, Dax kept saying he wanted to hold the fish and I was explaining repeatedly that fish, they don't like so much to be held so they'd just be hanging out in their little fish house, swimming around, while we watched them.
"Do you understand? We'll just be watching them. No touching."
He nodded, but just to be sure, I figured a quiz couldn't hurt. I asked, "Dax, are we going to touch the fish?"
"Nooooo."
"What are we going to do with them?"
"I'm going to EAT them."
He'd like everyone to know that the red one would taste like apple juice.
