Dearly Beloved

Marlin died. I discovered its body at the bottom of the tank yesterday afternoon while the kids were at the park. So it's just Robin and Dizzy left in the tank now. Maybe 3 WAS a crowd after all. I conducted a simple burial and Caitlyn said the prayer... of course, it was hard for me to explain why God will not "bring Marlin back to life" nor will Marlin resurrect from death. So I told her that the reason why Marlin died was because he was really really old. Anyway, I burried it at the bottom of the chilli plant. I hope Angie doesn't buy another fish over to replace Marlin... for one, Marlin is irreplaceable and second of all.... I am tired of being the only one washing the tank all the time.
