The fish all made it through the night… not only did they just ‘survive’ but they seem to be thriving. When Matthew and I went down to feed them this morning, the light was already on, so I knew Austin and Christopher had already checked in on them. Thank goodness they made it! I would be said if THEY had found a dead fish. Most of them have been named… the shark is Jeremy, the angel fish is Isabella, the mosquito fish is Scarlet, and the rest of the names escape me at the moment. I am thinking of printing out a little ‘name tag’ of sorts since I am the one always assigned to remember all the names… since I won’t be able to remember fish names, I feel some sort of labeling is in order.
Matthew has also learned the sign for “fish” which is made by taking your right hand and mimicking a fish gracefully swimming in the water (you can look up the two-handed version HERE if you want to see what it really like). Well, Matthew’s version of fish is less graceful and looks more like a fish out of water flopping on its side either dying, or trying to thrust himself back into the water… but hey, HE knows what he means, WE know what he means, so a fish is a fish… swimming OR dying, it does not matter.
