project g

you might be thinking the title is outdated, with a new child in the mix & whatnot. i've been racking my brain for a few months now for a new witty title like "project gabucas". but you know what? "g" can stand for many things like "GOD help me", "GEE I love the craziness of parenting a preschooler & kindergartener + commuting 100+ miles a day for work", or "GOT more wine?" ...

Mom of the Year

So, perhaps I agreed to buy fish to change their focus from begging for a dog, kitten or baby sister. Or perhaps I bought them fish because I hadn't seen them all week- and a new pet, what a fun adventure!

Whatever the motivation, fish were purchased. G asked lots of questions at the store regarding proper fish care. Last time I had a fish I was probably his age. G settled on 3 zebra danios & L was dead set on a gold fish, whom he named Baby Fish.

Speaking of dead....2 of 3 of G's fish kicked it within the first hour. They were known as floatie and swimmy. AWESOME. I had planned on giving the whole "fish die" talk at bedtime. No such luck and of course G was upset. There were tears.

But I'm glad to report G's remaining fish, Silver, and Baby Fish made it through the night.

I'm just looking for a drama- free week. Is that too much to ask?
