Izzy on Fish

Izzy: “Mom, if I saved my money for a dog, would you let me get one?”

Mom: “A real one?”

Izzy: “Yes.”

Mom: “No. One, we have one already; and two, I don’t know if you would take care of it.”

Izzy: “I would. I take care of my fish.”

Mom: “Well, I wouldn’t say that. I feed them about half the time because you forget.”

Izzy: “MOM….A dog is different. They bark when they need to drink, eat or go out. My fish don’t tell me to feed them so I forget. All the fish are good for is the night light in their tank when I’m sleeping.”

Moral of this story: Why does Izzy even have fish? Hmmm.
