Oh Boy... whatever shall we do with this little lady?
We were recently given a cute little twin bed for Zanna. But there is a small problem... she can now reach into her fish tank. I caught her with the Beta in her hand, watching his little gills gasping for air. I talked to her and let her know the Beta will die if we take him out of the water and told her she is never to take him out again.
Well curiosity got the best of my little Zanna. She took him out again! Jathan went into her room and found the poor little guy floating at the top of the tank.
He fished him out and told Zanna we only kill things we are going to eat. He talked about how he hunts and the animals he hunts feed our family. Then he told her to open wide... she had to eat the beta! Oh boy, she started sobbing... she was so sad. Then he told her she didn't really have to eat the fish but that in the future if she killed something she would have to eat it! I hope she learned her lesson! And let's pray she doesn't kill anything else. I don't want to feel like I have to make her eat it ;)
(I do dress my child... but she ALWAYS takes her shirt off... I just can't keep her clothed)

Jathan makes me laugh! Good lesson, but I would've had to excuse myself for that one. Hilarious! Poor fishy!!
I'm still laughing at the picture in my head of Jathan telling Zana she has to eat the beta!! hahaha!
That is way to funny, I was laughing so hard that Josh had to come over and see what I was looking at!
Oh man, that is so funny...and sad! I bet it did teach her a lesson. Cora still talks about our fish that died and every time we pass a cemetery, she reminds us that the fish is with Jesus now! :)
Oh my-that is funny yet sad at the same time!
