A new pet. Or not.

What??! A new pony for a pet, you ask? Sorry, no such luck! But at Steven's birthday party where I'm riding this pony, I got four goldfish as a party gift. My grandma has been bugging my parents to get me a pet for some time now, so she was happy for me!

I really enjoyed eating meals with my fish. I always remembered when it was time to feed them at breakfast and dinner, and I was very diligent at only feeding them a little bit, not too much.

Unfortunately, the fish didn't last long. After the third day, they disappeared. My parents explained that they got sick and they had to take them to the hospital. Mommy didn't have the heart to say the "D" word. Mommy seemed more distraught over the situation than me!
