Try Again

Andrew loves to say "try again?" when something doesn't go well the first time. I love this question because I feel like it is an essential concept to learn as a two year-old... at least in our house, you always get a chance to try again. If yesterday was bad... tomorrow hopefully won't be too much worse, and we'll just try again. Try again to have no tantrums in Old Navy, try again to actually take a nap, and try again not to whack a goldfish :)

On Friday night this little blue and black beta fish joined our family. Little man (and Kevin) got to "try again" and have another chance as fish owners.


I love watching him swim around... and so does Andrew. Sometimes we can barely find him. He loves to hide under the plant.


He is very durable, pretty, active, clean, and doesn't need to be fed often. He still doesn't have a name... so we call him "fishy." The name "Crayon" was the first one Andrew said, but it hasn't stuck. We're hoping the little man names him soon.


Welcome to the family "fishy"!
