Winning the Fish Lottery - Goldie the Guppy arrives home ...

Emery was so excited today as she came bounding off the school bus carrying a plastic bag with fish.  She was the lucky recipient of one of the class fish - which were given away through a drawing today.

Because Kristen is Kristen, the "free fish" quickly turned into a $40 trip to the pet store, where a new fish tank was purchased for "Goldie" the guppy.

But WOW is Emery thrilled to have a new pet at home.  This is a BIG DEAL for her, which of course is fun for mom and dad to watch.  Reminds me of a Master Card commercial:

"Supplies for the 'free' fish .... forty dollars.  Your daughter's excitement ... priceless."
