Briar Rose....the fish

We went to a community party in Medford. Lorili won a little goldfish at one of the games. She was so excited! We tried to teach her how to care for it....you know, like don't shake the bag, and don't grab the fish...but she was too excited about it. Somehow the fish made it to the house, but then she let it loose in the inflatable swimming pool where she would play catch and release. Obviously, the fish didn't survive the day. By the time she was done playing with it, the poor thing just floated at the surface trying to breathe. I told her she was sick and convinced her that if we flushed her down the toilet she would go back to the river where she came from and get better with her family. Here are pictures of the fish when she won her, and then when we are about to flush it. The video gets a little long, but the poor girl fell to pieces, it just breaks your heart.
