Well after three and half years our goldfish "Bubba" died. He was amazing. He liked to play dead so we weren't sure at first if he really was or not. Sadly we had to break the news to our 4yr. old daughter. She took it just fine and surprised us. We were the ones a little bit upset cause we both have never had a fish live that long. We decided to bury him in the ground instead of the flush burial. Seems strange to make over a Goldfish that was only a 39 cent feeder from Walmart, but we never had one live that long. What's the record? I think Bubba was striving to break it.
Just after burying Bubba, DD asked as we were walking back into the house when she could get another fish. Kids....they always amaze us.
Have a great day!
