Chase has been wanting a pet for awhile now. He says Rylie has Toby and Preslie has Tommy. "I don't have anybody mommy". Well, that melts my heart each and every time. Only problem? Chase is not a pet loving kid. He's happy with telling Toby and Tommy hi and then just barely touching them. He doesn't like to cuddle or love on any animals. He needed something a little low maintenance and mommy needed low maintenance. Since we all know that I'm the one that takes care of everyone in the family. Chase wanted a turtle. I thought about it, I really did but just didn't think I could go with a turtle. Then, it hit me. A FISH!!!!
Yes, a fish is a perfect pet for Chase Dagon. Cody wasn't too big on the idea and if I left it up to him, then we'd never get one. So I made the decision that he was getting one this weekend. I got the old fish tank out of the attic and cleaned it up. We made a trip to Wal-mart to pick out his fish, gravel (blue/green) and other "toys". He picked out a Betta fish and named him Mikeyangelo (what he calls Michelangelo from Ninja Turtles).
Mikeyangelo has adjusted very well to his new home. He is swimming all over the tank. Chase and Preslie are in heaven. They've been sitting by the tank all evening just talking to him and showing him all kinds of things.
So, we know have a dog, cat and a fish.
