I told this story to my friend Jennifer and she told me I needed to blog about it… so Jen this one’s for you!
The other day we were getting ready to go to science co-op so I called the boys in so I could inspect their hands and faces. They are building a tree house in a cedar tree and the combination of sap and dirt is not good.
Jake was clean so I sent him to the car. I checked Cade… he looked clean, sent him to the car. Then I called Travis and his hands were nasty so I sent him to clean up. This was our conversation…
Me: Go wash your hands, they’re nasty.
Travis: Cade was touching a dead fish.
Me: Why was Cade touching a dead fish???
Travis: It was in the tree.
Me: Why is there a dead fish IN THE TREE??????
Travis: It was alive yesterday.
Me: Why was there a LIVE fish in the tree???
Travis: It was our pet.
That’s when I gave up. I did find out later that the fish had been in a bucket of water in the tree.
Oh, and if you read my facebook update the other day, this was a different fish from the one in the net!
