Angel Fish
We woke up yesterday morning finding our Angel Fish dead. Dirty Aquarium????….That’s another blog hahaha… Lukie saw the poor lifeless creature and said, “Mama, on Saturday let’s go buy a new fish”.
Huh? Did I hear that right? I didn’t know what to say. I just told him, “Poor little fish, he’s dead. He’s gone, we won’t be seeing him anymore.”
I was expecting a bit of empathy out there but what I got was…”let’s go buy”. The flashbacks came(like you’re watching a sitcom or a movie). Shoes don’t fit…”let’s go buy another Geox Mama”. No more yogurt…”we go buy at CRAI”. Toy-doesn’t work…”buy batteries”…
Last Christmas:LUKIE: “Mama, perche Papa e’ sempre al’ lavoro(why is Papa always at work)?
ME: “He has to work so that we’ll
have money to pay for the house, your school bus etc… We alse need money to buy presents for Christmas
LUKIE: “But, we have so many presents already. Look!(pointing at the gifts under the Christmas tree.)
Got to check on this buying thing. My children might think they can just buy a Mama from the Mall.
