Goldee

Yesterday our family experience a milestone. Our goldfish died. Goldee was our goldfish we got at the Waco fair almost a year ago. Our family loved that fish. He was perfect for Chanze's first pet. He lived beside Chanze's bed in the same tank he came in. Chanze and his dad only had to feed him every night and occasionally clean out his tank. Chanze cried harder than I have ever seen him cry before. When he went to bed I crawled in bed with him and held him while he cried. He told me what a wonderful fish he was. He was a great swimmer and a great friend. He decided to get up and draw a picture of him to hang by his bed. This morning his dad and him buried Goldee in our backyard beside our sunflowers. Our family was so lucky to have Goldee as our goldfish and hope you felt as much love from us as we felt from you.
